Description

Pregasafe M 75 is a prescription medication combining Pregabalin (75 mg) and Methylcobalamin (750 mcg). It’s primarily used to manage neuropathic pain, which arises from nerve damage due to conditions like diabetes, shingles, spinal cord injuries, or other neurological disorders. Pregabalin works by modulating calcium channel activity in nerve cells, reducing pain signals, while Methylcobalamin (a form of Vitamin B12) aids in nerve repair and regeneration.
