Just thought I'd let you know (Pharmacist student in 4th year of school) Lyrica is not a controlled substance nor a narcotic analgesic, it is a SSRI (Selective Serotonin Receptor Inhibitor) in other words a anti-depressant. Which are not controlled substances, but yet they can be slightly addictive because of the fact that it messes with the chemicals in your brain and when you stop it your brain is use to the serotonin levels being high instead of low.
