How it works
This product’s leaflet is published as a scanned document. This section quotes the US prescribing label for the same active substance (pregabalin). It describes the substance, not this Bulgarian product — its uses and doses can differ.
Pregabalin binds with high affinity to the alpha 2 -delta site (an auxiliary subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels) in central nervous system tissues.
Although the mechanism of action of pregabalin has not been fully elucidated, results with genetically modified mice and with compounds structurally related to pregabalin (such as gabapentin) suggest that binding to the alpha 2 -delta subunit may be involved in pregabalin’s anti-nociceptive and antiseizure effects in animals.
Therefore, an increase in the metabolism of coadministered CYP1A2 substrates (e.g. theophylline, caffeine) or CYP 3A4 substrates (e.g., midazolam, testosterone) is not anticipated.
The rate of pregabalin absorption is decreased when given with food, resulting in a decrease in C max of approximately 25% to 30% and an increase in T max to approximately 3 hours.

Safety of the active substance
This product’s leaflet is published as a scanned document. This section quotes the US prescribing label for the same active substance (pregabalin). It describes the substance, not this Bulgarian product — its uses and doses can differ.
- Pregabalin is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to pregabalin or any of its components.
- Angioedema and hypersensitivity reactions have occurred in patients receiving pregabalin therapy [see Warnings and Precautions (5.2) ].

Most common adverse reactions (greater than or equal to 5% and twice placebo) in pediatric patients for the treatment of partial-onset seizures are increased weight and increased appetite.
