PREGABALIN belongs to a group of medications called 'anti-convulsant' primarily used in the prevention of neuropathic pain, epilepsy (seizures episodes), fibromyalgia (musculoskeletal pain), and neuralgia (pain due to damaged/irritated nerve). Neuropathic pain is a chronic nerve pain usually caused by damaged nerves due to a variety of diseases like diabetes, shingles (viral infection that causes a painful rash), or spinal cord injury, injuries to tissue, muscles, or joints.
PREGABALIN contains 'Pregabalin' that works by calming the damaged or overactive nerves in your body that may cause nerve or musculoskeletal pain or seizures. Besides this, it also decreases the number of pain signals sent out by damaged nerves in the body.

Although, not every person faces the side effects of PREGABALIN, and even some of the unpleasant effects of PREGABALIN do not require medical attention.
