Can I take Pregabalin and Prozac together?

Why this happens

Both medications have 'depressant' effects on the central nervous system. When taken together, these effects are additive, meaning they stack on top of each other to produce a stronger sedative effect than either drug would alone.

What you should do

You should use caution when combining these medications. Avoid driving or operating heavy machinery until you know how the combination affects you. Limit or avoid alcohol, as it will make these side effects much worse. If you feel excessively sleepy or confused, contact your doctor to discuss your dosages.
