Pregabid NT 50 Tablet

Product Introduction
Pregabid NT 50mg/10mg Tablet is a combination medicine that helps in managing neuropathic pain. It works by blocking the transmission of pain signals to the brain, thereby reducing discomfort caused by damaged nerves.

This medicine can be taken with or without food, ideally at bedtime. For best results, take it at the same time each day to maintain a steady level of the drug in your body. Always follow the prescribed dose and duration given by your doctor. If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. Do not suddenly stop taking this medication without consulting your doctor, even if you start feeling better.

Some common side effects may include nausea, constipation, blurred vision, increased sweating, dizziness, and sleepiness. Because it may cause drowsiness, avoid driving or engaging in activities that require alertness until you understand how the medicine affects you. Weight gain may occur with this treatment, so regular exercise and a healthy diet are recommended. Inform your doctor immediately if you notice mood swings, worsening depression, or thoughts of self-harm.

Before starting this medication, let your doctor know if you have liver or kidney problems. It is also important to share information about other medicines you are taking, as certain drugs may interfere with its effectiveness. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should discuss potential risks and benefits with their doctor before using this medicine.

How It Works
Pregabid NT 50mg/10mg Tablet contains two active components: Pregabalin and Nortriptyline. Pregabalin reduces pain by controlling the activity of calcium channels in nerve cells, while Nortriptyline, a tricyclic antidepressant, increases certain brain chemicals like serotonin and norepinephrine that block pain signals. Together, they provide effective relief from neuropathic pain.
