CompositionPregalin Nt Tablet is a combination medicine used to manage neuropathic pain caused by nerve damage from conditions such as diabetes, shingles or spinal cord injury. It contains pregabalin (a nerve pain reliever) and nortriptyline (a tricyclic antidepressant that also helps nerve pain), and belongs to a class of medicines called neuropathic pain combinations.
This medicine works by calming overactive nerve signals, with pregabalin reducing the release of pain messengers and nortriptyline changing the levels of chemical messengers that carry pain signals. Take it with or without food, usually at bedtime, at the same time every day, in the dose and for the duration prescribed by your doctor.
Keeping to a regular sleep routine, avoiding alcohol and taking care when driving or using machinery until you know how it affects you can help you manage drowsiness and dizziness alongside this medicine.
Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you have heart, kidney, liver or prostate problems, glaucoma, depression or a history of seizures, and about all other medicines you take. Seek help at once if you notice worsening mood, unusual behaviour or thoughts of self-harm.
