I. GENERIC NAME:
Pregabalin
Lyrica
Lyrica R.
Anticonvulsant
Pregabalin, marketed as Lyrica, alleviates conditions such as seizures, nerve pain (e.g.,
diabetic neuropathy), and anxiety. By calming overactive nerve signals in the central
nervous system, it helps control seizures, relieves nerve pain, and exhibits anxiolytic
effects. This is achieved through modulation of neurotransmitter release. Always seek
guidance from a healthcare professional for personalized advice on pregabalin use.
