Prebasun 450 mg (Pregabalin)

What Is Prebasun 450 mg?

Prebasun 450 mg (Pregabalin) contains the active ingredient Pregabalin, which is used for the treatment of neuropathic pain, a condition of long-lasting pain due to damaged or malfunctioning nerves. Those with nerve pain may feel a burning, shooting, stabbing, tingling, or electric shock sensation. The medicine is manufactured by Sunrise Remedies Pvt Ltd.

It is used to treat neuropathic pain because pain directly caused by nerve damage may not be properly controlled by ordinary painkillers. Prebasun 450 mg uses include managing neuropathic pain characterised by burning, shooting, stabbing, and tingling sensations.

How Does Prebasun 450 mg Work in the Body?

Neuropathic pain

Pregabalin 450 mg has high affinity for the α-2-delta-subunit of voltage-activated calcium channels present in the central nervous system. This reduces calcium entry into hyperactive nerves and lowers the release of excitatory neurotransmitters that contribute to abnormal pain responses. Burning, shooting, stabbing, and electric-shock-like nerve sensations may be reduced as repeated pain signals diminish. It does not repair damaged nerves directly, but it decreases abnormal communication between nerves.
