> Would you be able to calculate a ratio of neurontin to lyrica. If I'm used to 3600 milligrams of neurontin to achieve a mood elevating effect how much lyrica would be an equivalent.Well, they do work a little differently, but i would guess about a 3-1 ratio...please don't quote me on that, but that is what i would say i experience. Try it, it's really an amazing drug.
