Pregabalin is a potent anticonvulsant and neuropathic pain-relieving Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API), widely prescribed for conditions such as epilepsy, fibromyalgia, generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), and neuropathic pain associated with diabetes or spinal cord injury.
At Bluepill Express, we are a WHO-GMP, ISO, and cGMP-certified pharmaceutical API manufacturer and exporter, delivering high-purity Pregabalin that meets global pharmacopoeial standards (IP/BP/USP/EP).
Our Pregabalin API is produced under strict quality control protocols, ensuring optimum assay value, excellent flow properties, and consistent particle size distribution—ideal for both capsule and tablet formulations.
Bluepill Express serves clients across Africa, Asia, the Middle East, Latin America, CIS, and Europe, providing regulatory-compliant API documentation and custom bulk packaging for international shipment.
Therapeutic Category
- Anticonvulsant
- Neuropathic Pain Reliever
- Anxiolytic (Anti-Anxiety Agent)
- Antiepileptic Drug (AED)
Mechanism of Action
Pregabalin acts by binding to the alpha-2-delta subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels in the central nervous system.
This interaction reduces calcium influx into neurons, thereby decreasing the release of several neurotransmitters, including glutamate, norepinephrine, and substance P.
As a result, Pregabalin helps to stabilize neuronal activity, reduce seizure frequency, and alleviate neuropathic pain effectively.
Its dual role in nerve pain modulation and anxiety relief makes it one of the most versatile molecules in modern psychoneurological therapy.
