Pregacip M Strip Of 10 Capsules
Medical Description
Pregacip M capsule is used to provide relief from neuropathic pain (pain due to nerve damage). It is a combination medicine containing pregabalin and methylcobalamin/vitamin B12 as its active ingredients. Neuropathic pain is a condition of an abnormal, painful sensation in different body parts due to damage in a part of the brain responsible for sensing external stimuli. Pregacip M capsule reduces the pain sensation by altering the release of pain signals through the formation of new nerve cells and regenerating the damaged ones.
Pregeb M 75 capsule, Pregaba-M 75 capsule, Pregalin M 75 capsule and Mahagaba M 75 capsule are a few other medicines with pregabalin and methylcobalamin as their active components. Take this medicine in the exact dose and duration as prescribed by your doctor. Take it at a fixed time every day for optimal benefits.
You can take this medicine with or without meals. Do not stop taking this medicine on your own. Before using this medicine, inform the doctor if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy or breastfeeding and about your detailed medical history.
