I have been trying to find out why you shouldn't "drink" with Lyrica. Beside the fact that one should not drink w/any medication, I am still being advised to drink a wine like a glass a day for my blood but that of course isn't from my doctor that prescribed it. I am just trying to find out the facts as to what would happen if one did drink a glass a day of red wine with Lyrica, does anyone know why? Thank-you for taking the time out to reading this.

Avoid drinking alcohol. It can increase some of the side effects of Lyrica. Lyrica can cause side effects that may impair your thinking or reactions. Be careful if you drive or do anything that requires you to be awake and alert. Cold or allergy medicine, narcotic pain medicine, sleeping pills, muscle relaxers, and medicine for seizures, depression or anxiety can add to sleepiness caused by Lyrica. Tell your doctor if you regularly use any of these other medicines.
