Pregamyl Forte combines Pregabalin (a GABA analogue) with Methylcobalamin to manage idiopathic epilepsy and neuropathic pain in dogs and cats, with the convenience of once-daily dosing.
Composition: Each film-coated bilayered tablet contains Pregabalin IP 75mg (as a sustained-release form) and Methylcobalamin 1500mcg.
Indications: Idiopathic epilepsy and seizure control (as an adjunct to primary anticonvulsant therapy); neuropathic pain; peripheral sensitisation; muscle cramps; supportive pain management in hip dysplasia.
Dosage: As directed by the veterinarian, typically once daily given the sustained-release formulation.
Directions for Use: Give whole, with or without food, at the same time each day as prescribed.
How does the medicine work?: Pregabalin binds to calcium channels in the nervous system, reducing the release of excitatory neurotransmitters that drive seizures and neuropathic pain signals, while Methylcobalamin supports nerve repair and function - together helping control both seizure activity and nerve-related pain.
Possible side effects: Possible side effects include giddiness, sedation, dizziness, drowsiness and nausea. This is a prescription medication for use under veterinary supervision, particularly when managing a seizure disorder.
