Can Valium Be Taken While On Lyrica?

I had three surgeries on my ankle in June. A few days ago I finished taking my Oxycontin and lyrica after 47 days on them in the hospital. I was not told about withdrawals and suffered for two days before my doctor put me back on lyrica to taper off. Now I m extremely restless and can t sleep. I m so exhausted. Can I take a Valium or some other sleep aid with 75mg of lyrica?

Hello,

You can safely take valium while on lyrica.

It will not interact with each other or affect the efficacy of one another.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
