Mechanism of Action

Pregabalin binds to the alpha-2-delta subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels in the central nervous system. This reduces the release of excitatory neurotransmitters such as glutamate and substance P, helping to decrease nerve pain signals and seizure activity.

Benefits

• Effective relief of neuropathic pain
