Product introduction
Pregabid-D 75/30 Capsule DR is a medication used for managing neuropathic pain, which occurs due to nerve damage or malfunction. It works by reducing the release of certain chemicals that transmit pain signals and by increasing the levels of natural substances in the brain that help maintain emotional balance and block pain pathways.
This medicine can be taken with or without meals, but it is best to take it at the same time every day to maintain steady levels in the body. Follow your doctor’s prescribed dose and duration carefully, as stopping the medicine suddenly may worsen symptoms. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember, but do not take two doses at once. Complete the full course even if you start feeling better.
Common side effects may include swelling of the hands or feet, dizziness, drowsiness, headache, nausea, dry mouth, blurred vision, or trouble concentrating. Some people may experience sleepiness or reduced alertness, so avoid driving or activities requiring focus until you know how the medicine affects you. Weight gain is also possible, so regular exercise and a healthy diet are recommended. Notify your doctor if you notice mood changes, depression, or suicidal thoughts.
Before starting this medicine, inform your doctor if you have liver or kidney problems, or if you are pregnant, planning to conceive, or breastfeeding. Also, let your doctor know about any other medications you are taking, as some may interact with this drug.

How it works
Pregabid-D 75/30 Capsule DR combines two active ingredients: pregabalin and duloxetine. Pregabalin works by calming overactive nerve signals, while duloxetine boosts serotonin and norepinephrine levels, which are natural brain chemicals that help reduce the perception of pain. Together, they provide effective relief from nerve-related pain.
