Product Information

Prenicgaba NTM is a combination drug containing three medicines – Pregabalin 75mg, Nortriptyline 10mg and Methylcobalamin 1500mcg. Methylcobalamin is a form of vitamin B, which helps in the production of myelin, a substance that protects nerve fibers and rejuvenates damaged nerve cells. Pregabalin is an alpha-2 delta ligand that decreases pain by modulating the calcium channel activity of the nerve cells. Nortriptyline is a trycycline anti-depressant drug, which helps relieve chronic pain and improves mood.
Together, they relieve neuropathic pain (pain from damaged nerves) including diabetic neuropathic pain.

Pregabalin is an alpha 2 delta ligand which decreases pain by modulating calcium channel activity of the nerve cells. Nortriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant which increases the levels of chemical messengers (serotonin and noradrenaline) that stop the movement of pain signals in the brain. Methylcobalamin is a form of vitamin B which helps in the production of myelin, a substance that protects nerve fibers and rejuvenates damaged nerve cells. Together, they relieve neuropathic pain (pain from damaged nerves).
