PEG SR 75 TABLET 10 is taken orally.

PEG SR 75 TABLET 10 contains pregabalin (75 mg), which works on the body in the following ways:

• Binds to Alpha-2-Delta Subunits: Pregabalin binds to alpha-2-delta subunits of voltage-gated calcium channels within your central nervous system. These channels play an essential role in nerve signal transmission.

• Reduces Excitatory Neurotransmitter Release: By binding to the alpha-2-delta subunits, pregabalin reduces calcium influx into the nerve endings. This action decreases the release of several excitatory neurotransmitters, including glutamate, noradrenaline, and substance P.

• Decreases Neuronal Excitability: The reduced release of excitatory neurotransmitters leads to decreased neuronal excitability and pain transmission, helping manage conditions like neuropathic pain and fibromyalgia.
