PREGABALIN+MECOBALAMIN+ALPHA LIPOIC ACID+PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE+FOLIC ACID is a combination medication used for the management of neuropathic pain. Neuropathic pain is a chronic progressive nerve disease that causes nerve pain due to nerve damage or a malfunctioning nervous system. Symptoms of neuropathic pain include shooting, burning pain followed by tingling, and numbness (loss of sensation). Neuropathic pain can be caused due to amputation of limbs, diabetic neuropathy (nerve damage due to excess blood sugar level), excessive alcohol intake (alcoholism), and cancer treatment via chemotherapy.
PREGABALIN+MECOBALAMIN+ALPHA LIPOIC ACID+PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE+FOLIC ACID is a combination of five drugs: Pregabalin (anticonvulsant), Mecobalamin (vitamin B12), Alpha-lipoic acid (antioxidant), Pyridoxine hydrochloride (vitamin B6), and Folic acid (vitamin B9). Pregabalin affects the chemicals in the brain that send pain signals to the nervous system thereby relieving nerve pain. Mecobalamin and Pyridoxine hydrochloride help in the rejuvenation and protection of damaged nerve cells by producing a substance called myelin. Alpha-lipoic acid helps in providing a protective effect on the nerve tissues and brain. Folic acid helps in delivering essential nutrients to the nerves. Together, PREGABALIN+MECOBALAMIN+ALPHA LIPOIC ACID+PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE+FOLIC ACID provides relief from neuropathic pain.
Take PREGABALIN+MECOBALAMIN+ALPHA LIPOIC ACID+PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE+FOLIC ACID as prescribed. In some cases, you may experience certain common side-effects such as dizziness, sleepiness, tiredness, nausea, and vomiting. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
To treat your condition effectually, continue taking PREGABALIN+MECOBALAMIN+ALPHA LIPOIC ACID+PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE+FOLIC ACID for as long as your doctor has prescribed. Consult a doctor before starting PREGABALIN+MECOBALAMIN+ALPHA LIPOIC ACID+PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE+FOLIC ACID if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. PREGABALIN+MECOBALAMIN+ALPHA LIPOIC ACID+PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE+FOLIC ACID causes drowsiness and dizziness, so drive only if you are alert. PREGABALIN+MECOBALAMIN+ALPHA LIPOIC ACID+PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE+FOLIC ACID should not be given to children as safety and effectiveness have not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol along with PREGABALIN+MECOBALAMIN+ALPHA LIPOIC ACID+PYRIDOXINE HYDROCHLORIDE+FOLIC ACID as it could lead to increased dizziness and sleepiness. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to rule out any side effects.

Neuropathic pain: It is a nervous disorder that occurs due to nerve damage caused by chronic progressive nerve disease, limbs amputation, diabetes, infection or injury. The pain could be intermittent or continuous, felt as prickling, stabbing, tingling, or burning sensation. A feeling of numbness and loss of senses is also common with neuropathic pain. Usually, the body sends the pain signals when there is an injury, but with neuropathic pain, the pain that is not triggered by an injury, the body sends the pain signals. Symptoms include spontaneous, un-triggered pain, unpleasant feeling, shooting, burning or stabbing pain, difficulty resting or sleeping, and evoked pain (pain caused by events that are usually not painful).
