Pregabid Forte 75 Capsule 10's

Pregabid Forte 75 Capsule is used to treat neuropathic pain. Neuropathic pain is a chronic progressive nerve disease that causes nerve pain due to nerve damage or malfunctioning of the nervous system. Symptoms include spontaneous, untriggered pain, unpleasant feeling, shooting, burning or stabbing pain, difficulty resting or sleeping and evoked pain (pain caused by events that are usually not painful). A feeling of numbness and loss of sensations is also common with neuropathic pain.

Pregabid Forte 75 Capsule is a combination of three drugs: Pregabalin (Anti-convulsant), mecobalamin (vitamin) and alpha-lipoic acid (antioxidant). Pregabalin affects the chemicals in the brain that send pain signals across the nervous system. It works by binding to the specific site on voltage-gated calcium channels; this helps in relieving nerve pain. Mecobalamin helps in the rejuvenation and protection of damaged nerve cells by producing a substance called myelin. Alpha-lipoic acid helps in providing a protective effect on the nerve tissues and brain. Together, Pregabid Forte 75 Capsule helps in providing relief from neuropathic pain.

Pregabalin is an anticonvulsant that affects the chemicals in the brain that send pain signals across the nervous system. It works by binding to the specific site on voltage-gated calcium channels; this helps in relieving nerve pain and lowers the risk of seizures. Mecobalamin is a form of vitamin B12 which helps in the rejuvenation and protection of damaged nerve cells by producing a substance called myelin. Alpha-lipoic acid is an antioxidant that helps provide a protective effect on the nerve tissues and the brain. Together, Pregabid Forte 75 Capsule helps in providing relief from neuropathic pain.

Neuropathic pain: Neuropathic pain is caused due to damaged sensory nerves. It is caused by chronic progressive nerve disease or due to infection or injury. The pain could be intermittent or continuous, which is felt as prickling, stabbing, tingling or burning sensation. A feeling of numbness and loss of sensations is also common with neuropathic pain. Usually, the body sends the pain signals when there is an injury, but with neuropathic pain, the pain is not triggered by an injury, the body unpromptedly sends the pain signals. Symptoms include spontaneous, untriggered pain, unpleasant feeling, shooting, burning or stabbing pain, difficulty resting or sleeping and evoked pain (pain caused by events that are usually not painful).
