PREGABALIN

Overview:

Pregabalin is a medicine used to relieve nerve-related pain, prevent seizures, and manage anxiety. It works by calming overactive nerves in the brain and spinal cord, which helps reduce pain, tingling, or abnormal nerve signals. People use it to treat nerve pain from diabetes, lingering pain after shingles, fibromyalgia, or epilepsy.

Classification: Anticonvulsant 

Uses:

Pregabalin is mainly used to relieve nerve-related pain, control seizures, and manage anxiety. It can help with nerve pain caused by diabetes, post-shingles pain, fibromyalgia, or other nerve disorders, making daily life more comfortable. It’s also used as part of epilepsy treatment to help prevent seizures. 

How it works:

Pregabalin can relieve nerve pain by calming those nerves that are overactive in the brain and the spinal cord. It attaches to specific calcium channels on nerve cells thereby lowering transmission of chemical substances that carry the pain signal or induce a seizure. In this manner, Pregabalin decreases nerve pain, tingling of the nerve, and abnormal nerve activity making people more comfortable and in control of their symptoms.

Dosage: As prescribed by your doctor.

Side Effects:

• Drowsiness or sleepiness
• Dizziness or lightheadedness
• Weight gain or mild swelling (edema)
• Dry mouth
• Blurred vision

Precautions:

Before taking Pregabalin, it’s important to tell your doctor if you have any kidney problems, heart issues, or a history of mood disorders. Avoid driving or operating heavy machinery until you know how the medicine affects you, because it can cause drowsiness or dizziness. Take it exactly as prescribed and do not stop suddenly, as this can trigger seizures. Also tell your doctor about any other medicines or supplements you use to prevent interactions.
