Description
Nervisign-300 is a prescription medication with Pregabalin 300mg as its active ingredient, used to treat various conditions such as peripheral neuropathic pain, partial seizures, and generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). Pregabalin reduces the frequency and intensity of nerve pain by modulating calcium channels in the nervous system, which decreases abnormal excitability in nerve cells.
This medication helps alleviate chronic pain after nerve damage caused by diabetes, shingles, or spinal injuries. It also aids in reducing seizure occurrences in epilepsy patients and managing anxiety symptoms.
