Description
Ingredients: Pregabalin 100mg
Therapeutic Indications: Zeegap is used in adults for the following conditions:
- Management of neuropathic pain associated with diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
- Postherpetic neuralgia
- Adjunctive therapy in adults with partial seizures with or without secondary generalization
- Treatment of Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) in adults.
- Treatment of fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS)
Precautions:
- Withdrawal of Antiepileptic Drugs (AEDs): As with all AEDs, pregabalin should be withdrawn gradually to minimize the potential of increased seizure frequency in patients with seizure disorders. If pregabalin is discontinued this should be done gradually over a minimum of 1 week.
- Pediatrics: Pregabalin is not recommended for use in children below the age of 12 years and adolescents (12-17 years) due to insufficient data on safety and efficacy.
- Nursing Mothers: Because many drugs are excreted in human milk, caution should be exercised when pregabalin is administered to a nursing woman.
- Pregnancy: There are no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Pregabalin should be used during pregnancy only if the potential benefit justifies the potential risk to the fetus.
- Effects on Ability to Drive and Use Machines: Pregabalin may cause dizziness and somnolence and therefore may have an influence on the ability to drive or use machines or may increase the occurrence of accidental injuries especially in the elderly population.
