In laymen terms, Pregabalin is a drug prescribed for relief from the diabetic nerve pain and used as an adjunct therapy for epilepsy patients with partial seizures and for generalized anxiety disorders.
Pregabalin is known to have a considerable impact on neuropathic lower back pain. Besides, an anticonvulsant is also known to reduce lower back pain with a considerably less amount of side effects than tricyclic antidepressants.
Marketed by Pfizer under the trade name Lyrica®, Pregabalin was developed as a follow-up drug to gabapentin and works by preventing or controlling abnormal increases in the brain electrical activity. While the European Union approved the drug in 2004, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) gave the approval for use a year later, in 2005.
