    The company is Novadoz. For some reason, this is the only company to make it in my area of the U.S. and is the only one I can get from any pharmacy in my state. The pharmacist literally told me that if I have any problems with this medication, there is nothing they can do. That was before I filled the first prescription, which I found very odd since I didn't ask anything about it.

    I have talked to them and they are very lackadaisical with my treatment. They have left it up to me about the taper. These are also the doctors that had me come off of 20mgs of valium that I had taken for over 6 years in just 4 weeks. They have become so scared of these types of medications since the "opiate epidemic" that very little input as to how to safely come off is being given. They just want you off as soon as possible so that the prescription is not in their name. I was only given two options for my anxiety after the list of medications that I had tried, one being Lyrica and the other being Seroquel. I gave the Seroquel a go with no success and then to the Pregabalin again. They are using these medications as a "loophole" to benzos. Especially the Seroquel. I heard 4 different patients being prescribed this the same day in the waiting room of my Pdoc. (The psychiatrist I see is in a practice with multiple doctors, but have the same waiting room and front desk nurse)
