Pregabalin
Pregabalin is an anticonvulsant and sedative that primarily acts by binding to the alpha2-delta subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels. It modulates the release of various neurotransmitters and is used for the treatment of neuropathic pain, epilepsy, and generalized anxiety disorders. The substance has a moderate risk profile, especially when combined with other central depressants.
Mechanism of Action
- Calcium channel modulator

Mechanism of Action
Pregabalin bindet an die α2δ-Subunit von spannungsabhängigen Calciumkanälen im zentralen Nervensystem und hemmt die Freisetzung von Neurotransmittern, was zu einer Verringerung der neuronalen Übererregbarkeit führt.
