generic drugs

Anyone have any information on when Generic Pregabalin will hit the market? Pricing? Has Pfizer dropped their price for this year with generic approval pending? I'm an anesthesiologist and we use gabapentin for periop pain. Pregabalin's consistent bioavailability would be a big improvement.

Do we have to memorize the Orange Book so we don't have to look up the availability of a generic drug in front of the patient whenever a question about generics pops up? If we have to memorize it, what techniques do you use to memorize it?
