PEGABANYL CAPSULE 10 is taken orally.

PEGABANYL CAPSULE 10 contains two active ingredients:

• Pregabalin (75 mg): Despite its structural similarity to the neurotransmitter GABA, this component doesn't bind directly to GABA receptors. Instead, it binds to the alpha2-delta subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels in your central nervous system. This action subsequently reduces the release of various neurotransmitters like glutamate, noradrenaline, and substance P, which play a part in pain signalling. Hence, pregabalin helps manage neuropathic pain by calming overactive nerves.
• Methylcobalamin (0.75 mg): This is an active form of vitamin B12 that maintains the health of your nervous system. It aids in the creation of myelin, a protective sheath that surrounds nerve fibres, thus supporting nerve regeneration and repair. Moreover, methylcobalamin exhibits pain-relieving properties by promoting the regeneration of injured nerves and improving nerve conduction velocity.

• Store PEGABANYL CAPSULE 10 at room temperature, ideally between 15-30°C.
• Keep it in a tightly sealed container, away from direct light and moisture.
• Always ensure that the capsule is out of reach of children.
• Don't forget to check the expiry date on the package before use.

• Since PEGABANYL CAPSULE 10 manages neuropathic pain, gentle exercises like walking or swimming can help improve symptoms. Always remember to consult your doctor before starting any new exercise programme.
• A diet rich in Vitamin B12 can support nerve health. Try to include foods like dairy products, fish and eggs in your daily meals.
