A case of dementia with Lewy bodies with psychosis induced by low-dose gabapentinoids
Although pregabalin-induced psychosis has been reported at higher doses (300-450 mg daily), it has not been reported at doses as low as those used in this patient. Gabapentinoids may cause psychosis in patients with dementia with Lewy bodies even at low doses, likely due to hypersensitivity to gabapentinoids in DLB.
