CHOLECALCIFEROL+METHYLCOBALAMIN+NORTRIPTYLINE+PREGABALIN

About

CHOLECALCIFEROL+METHYLCOBALAMIN+NORTRIPTYLINE+PREGABALIN is a combination medication indicated for the management of neuropathic pain associated with diabetic neuropathy, post-herpetic neuralgia (damage to the nerve fibres during shingles infection), pain in fibromyalgia (musculoskeletal pain) or spinal cord injury. Neuropathic pain is a chronic progressive nerve disease that causes nerve pain due to nerve damage or a malfunctioning nervous system. 

CHOLECALCIFEROL+METHYLCOBALAMIN+NORTRIPTYLINE+PREGABALIN contains Pregabalin, Nortriptyline, Methylcobalamin, and Cholecalciferol. Pregabalin is an antiepileptic agent/anticonvulsant that affects the chemicals in the brain that send pain signals across the nervous system, thereby relieving nerve pain. Nortriptyline (antidepressant) works by increasing neurotransmitters (serotonin and noradrenaline) in the brain, thus reducing the pain signals in the brain. Mecobalamin/Methylcobalamin, a form of vitamin B12, regulates body functions, such as cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis. Cholecalciferol/Vitamin D3 promotes a neuroprotective effect and prevents the progression of nerve damage.

Your doctor will decide the dosage based on your medical condition. Sometimes, CHOLECALCIFEROL+METHYLCOBALAMIN+NORTRIPTYLINE+PREGABALIN may have common side effects like dizziness, drowsiness, blurred vision, shakiness, headache, nausea, vomiting, constipation, weight gain, swelling in the hands and feet, and dry mouth. These side effects do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

Please tell your doctor if you are allergic to CHOLECALCIFEROL+METHYLCOBALAMIN+NORTRIPTYLINE+PREGABALIN or its components. Let your doctor know if you are pregnant, planning to conceive or a breastfeeding mother. CHOLECALCIFEROL+METHYLCOBALAMIN+NORTRIPTYLINE+PREGABALIN may cause drowsiness and dizziness, so drive only if you are alert. Avoid consuming alcohol along with CHOLECALCIFEROL+METHYLCOBALAMIN+NORTRIPTYLINE+PREGABALIN as it could lead to increased dizziness and sleepiness. Safety and efficacy of CHOLECALCIFEROL+METHYLCOBALAMIN+NORTRIPTYLINE+PREGABALIN have not been established in patients younger than 18 years. 

Uses of CHOLECALCIFEROL+METHYLCOBALAMIN+NORTRIPTYLINE+PREGABALIN

Neuropathy, pain in fibromyalgia (musculoskeletal pain), and nerve pain in post-herpetic neuralgia (damage to the nerve fibres during shingles infection).

Medicinal Benefits

CHOLECALCIFEROL+METHYLCOBALAMIN+NORTRIPTYLINE+PREGABALIN contains Pregabalin, Nortriptyline, Methylcobalamin, and Cholecalciferol. Pregabalin works by binding to the specific site on voltage-gated calcium channels, thus helping to relieve nerve pain. Nortriptyline increases the levels of nerve transmitters (serotonin and noradrenaline) in the brain, thereby reducing the pain messages arriving in the brain. Methylcobalamin regulates body functions, such as cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis. Cholecalciferol promotes a neuroprotective effect and prevents the progression of nerve damage.

    Patients Concern

    Disease/Condition Glossary

    Neuropathic pain: It is a nervous disorder that occurs due to nerve damage caused by chronic progressive nerve disease, limb amputation, diabetes or due to infection or injury. The pain could be intermittent or continuous, such as a prickling, stabbing, tingling or burning sensation. A feeling of numbness and loss of sensation is also common with neuropathic pain. Symptoms include spontaneous, un-triggered pain, unpleasant feeling, shooting, burning or stabbing pain, difficulty resting or sleeping, and evoked pain (pain caused by events that are usually not painful). 

    FAQs

    CHOLECALCIFEROL+METHYLCOBALAMIN+NORTRIPTYLINE+PREGABALIN affects the chemicals in the brain that send pain signals to the nervous system, thereby relieving nerve pain. It also reduces further nerve damage in neuropathy and protects the nerve cells.
