What it is used for

Pregabalin is used to treat nerve pain (neuropathic pain), such as pain from diabetic nerve damage, pain that continues after shingles, and nerve pain after spinal cord injury. It is also used for fibromyalgia in some countries and for generalised anxiety disorder in others. In epilepsy, it is added to other medicines to help control focal (partial) seizures.

How it works

Pregabalin attaches to part of the calcium channels on overactive nerve cells. This reduces the release of chemical messengers that carry pain signals and calms nerve activity in the brain and spinal cord.

Talk to a doctor or pharmacist first

  • People with kidney disease, as the medicine is removed by the kidneys and may build up
  • Anyone with a past or present problem with alcohol or drug misuse
  • People with heart failure, lung disease or breathing problems during sleep
  • Anyone with depression or a history of thoughts of self-harm
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women, or anyone planning a pregnancy

Warnings

  • Taking it with opioids, alcohol or other sedating medicines can cause severe drowsiness and slowed breathing; get urgent help if someone is hard to wake or breathing slowly.
  • Do not stop it suddenly, as this can cause poor sleep, anxiety, sweating and, in epilepsy, seizures. Your doctor will reduce it gradually.
  • It can cause dependence and is sometimes misused; take it exactly as prescribed and never share it.
  • Seek urgent help for swelling of the face, lips, tongue or throat, or a severe skin rash.
  • Do not drive or use machinery until you know how it affects you.

Questions people ask

Is pregabalin addictive?

Pregabalin can cause dependence, and some people misuse it for its calming or 'high' effect. The risk is higher in people with a history of drug or alcohol problems. Take it only as prescribed and tell your doctor if you feel you need more of it.

What is the difference between pregabalin and gabapentin?

They belong to the same group and work in a similar way. Pregabalin is absorbed more predictably from the gut, so it may reach an effective level more quickly. Which one suits you depends on your condition, kidney function and other medicines, so your doctor will decide.

Does pregabalin cause weight gain?

It can. Some people notice an increased appetite or fluid build-up in the legs. Tell your doctor if you gain weight quickly or notice swelling.

Some people notice less pain within the first week or two, but it can take longer while your doctor adjusts the treatment. Do not increase the amount yourself if it does not work at first.
