Hi
I think you would have to ask BMS the manufacturer. I once called, I think it is Pfizer who make Lyrica, and I was pronoucing it as in "lyrics", and they were pronoucing it "lie-rika".

I agree with Phillipa. I think it's supposed to be 'boo-spar'.

Atarax = at–uh–racks etc.
Is the 'uh' an American thing? Why not at-ah-racks?
