Gabica 50mg Capsule Uses

Gabica 50mg is composed of Pregabalin as the active ingredient which is an anxiolytic, anticonvulsant, and analgesic medication. It is used to treat epilepsy and anxiety, as well as nerve damage due to shingles and diabetes.

Gabica shows anxiolytic properties by stopping the release of anxiety causing chemicals from the brain, making it effective against generalized anxiety disorder, and other forms of anxiety. It is also an anticonvulsant that works by suppressing the abnormal activity in the brain that causes seizures, meaning that it is good against epilepsy.

Moreover, its analgesic effect is beneficial against nerve pain in conditions like postherpetic neuralgia, and diabetic neuropathy, as it can affect pain messages traveling through the brain and spine.
