Pregabalin

Uses

Pregabalin is used in the treatment of neuropathic pain, anxiety disorder, fibromyalgia, and seizures associated with epilepsy.

It is also utilized to treat nerve pain by blocking pain signals traveling through damaged nerves to the brain. For the treatment of anxiety, it is thought to work by inhibiting the release of certain chemical messengers (neurotransmitters) that contribute to feelings of anxiety.

Side Effects

Common side effects of Pregabalin include sleepiness, weight gain, dryness in the mouth, blurred vision, dizziness, and peripheral edema.
