Pregabalin is a medication used to treat various conditions related to nerve pain and seizures. Here are some of the specific uses of pregabalin:

• Neuropathic pain: Pregabalin is used to relieve neuropathic pain that can occur in various parts of the body, such as arms, hands, fingers, legs, feet, or toes, due to conditions like diabetes, postherpetic neuralgia (PHN), or spinal cord injury.

• Fibromyalgia: Pregabalin is used to treat fibromyalgia, a long-lasting condition that may cause pain, muscle stiffness and tenderness, tiredness, and difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep.

• Seizures: Pregabalin is used along with other medications to treat certain types of seizures in adults and children 1 month of age and older.

• Anxiety: Pregabalin is also used to treat anxiety by stopping the brain from releasing the chemicals that make you feel anxious.

Pregabalin works by decreasing the number of pain signals that are sent out by damaged nerves in the body. It is available in various forms, including capsules, oral solution, and extended-release tablets. The medication is only available with a prescription, and it is important to follow the instructions of your doctor or pharmacist carefully when taking pregabalin.
