About Prixain Gel

Prixain Gel is a combination medicine used to treat neuropathic pain, acute musculoskeletal pain, joint stiffness, neck, back, and shoulder injuries. Neuropathic pain is a progressive nerve disease which causes nerve pain due to a damaged or malfunctioning nervous system. Musculoskeletal pain affects the bones, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and nerves.
 
Prixain Gel contains Pregabalin, Diclofenac, Methyl Salicylate, Menthol, and Capsaicin. Pregabalin works by modulating the calcium channel activity of the nerve cells. Diclofenac and Methyl salicylate work by blocking the effect of chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation. Capsaicin exerts an analgesic effect by desensitising the nerve endings. Menthol provides a cooling sensation by dilating the blood vessels. Together, Prixain Gel helps in providing relief from pain.
 
You are advised to use Prixain Gel for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. In some cases, Prixain Gel may cause side effects such as irritation and a burning sensation at the site of application. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.
 
Prixain Gel is for external use only. Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Do not use Prixain Gel on open wounds, damaged skin or with a heating pad. Avoid contact with eyes, nose, or mouth; if contact occurs, rinse with water thoroughly. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and the medicines you are taking to rule out any side effects/interactions.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Neuropathic pain: It is a nervous system disorder caused due damaged sensory nerves. The pain could be intermittent or continuous, which is felt as a prickling, stabbing, tingling or burning sensation. A feeling of numbness and loss of sensations is also common with neuropathic pain. Symptoms include spontaneous, untriggered pain, unpleasant feeling, shooting, burning or stabbing pain, difficulty resting or sleeping, and evoked pain (pain caused by events that are usually not painful).

Musculoskeletal pain: Musculoskeletal pain affects the bones, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and nerves. It can be acute or chronic and can be localised or widespread. The pain can be mild or severe enough to interfere with your daily routine. Musculoskeletal pain could occur due to arthritis, osteoporosis, fractures, dislocations, problems with the bone structure or injury to the bones, joints, tendons, muscles, and ligaments. Symptoms of musculoskeletal pain include stiffness, swelling, redness, weakness, muscle spasms or twitching, trouble moving the affected area and soreness.
