    According to information on the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA) website under the area of FAA medications, Lyrica is not approved as it is an antiepileptic medication.

    As with most conditions and the medications to treat them, you should check with an aviation medical examiner to see what your alternatives may be. Depending on your condition, you may want to try the special issuance route.

    Be persistant

    Good luck.
