MECOBALAMIN+PREGABALIN+NORTRIPTYLINE
About MECOBALAMIN+PREGABALIN+NORTRIPTYLINE
MECOBALAMIN+PREGABALIN+NORTRIPTYLINE is a combination medicine indicated to manage neuropathic pain associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy and postherpetic neuralgia. Neuropathic pain is a chronic progressive nerve disease that causes nerve pain due to nerve damage or a malfunctioning nervous system. Symptoms include spontaneous, untriggered pain, unpleasant feeling, shooting, burning or stabbing pain, and evoked pain (pain caused by events usually not painful).
MECOBALAMIN+PREGABALIN+NORTRIPTYLINE combines three drugs: Mecobalamin, Pregabalin, and Nortriptyline. Mecobalamin is a vitamin that aids in producing myelin, which protects nerve fibres and regenerates damaged nerve cells. Pregabalin reduces pain by interfering with pain messages travelling through the brain and down the spine. Nortriptyline works by increasing nerve transmitters (serotonin and noradrenaline) in the brain, thereby reducing the pain messages arriving in the brain. Together, MECOBALAMIN+PREGABALIN+NORTRIPTYLINE helps to treat neuropathic pain.
Take MECOBALAMIN+PREGABALIN+NORTRIPTYLINE as prescribed. Your doctor will decide the dose and duration based on your medical condition. In some cases, MECOBALAMIN+PREGABALIN+NORTRIPTYLINE may cause dizziness, sleepiness, nausea, blurred vision, peripheral oedema (swelling of the lower legs and hands), weight gain, and dry mouth. These side effects do not necessitate medical attention and will subside gradually over time. However, you should consult your doctor if you are experiencing these side effects regularly.
Please do not take MECOBALAMIN+PREGABALIN+NORTRIPTYLINE if you are allergic to any of its ingredients. Consult your doctor before taking MECOBALAMIN+PREGABALIN+NORTRIPTYLINE if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. MECOBALAMIN+PREGABALIN+NORTRIPTYLINE may cause drowsiness and dizziness, so drive only if alert. MECOBALAMIN+PREGABALIN+NORTRIPTYLINE should not be given to children as safety and effectiveness have not been established. Avoid consuming alcohol with MECOBALAMIN+PREGABALIN+NORTRIPTYLINE as it could increase dizziness and sleepiness. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medicines to avoid side effects.

Disease/Condition Glossary
Neuropathic pain: Neuropathic pain is caused due to damaged sensory nerves. It is caused by chronic progressive nerve disease or due to infection or injury. The pain could be intermittent or continuous, which is felt as a prickling, stabbing, tingling or burning sensation. A feeling of numbness and loss of sensations is also familiar with neuropathic pain. Usually, the body sends the pain signals when there is an injury, but with neuropathic pain, the pain is not triggered by an injury. The body unpromptedly sends the pain signals. Symptoms include spontaneous, untriggered pain, unpleasant feeling, shooting, burning or stabbing pain, difficulty resting or sleeping and evoked pain (pain caused by events usually not painful).
