Pregabalin is a structural analogue of the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid GABA. It appears to have a similar spectrum of benefits and harms to that of other adjuvant analgesics used to treat neuropathic pain. It is clinically superior to placebo, and indirect comparisons suggest it is non-inferior for efficacy and safety to amitriptyline and gabapentin. There are no head-to-head trials comparing the efficacy of pregabalin with that of other drugs for neuropathic pain. Information about its use in people with head and neck pain is lacking. Pregabalin is an alternative treatment for people with neuropathic pain that has not responded to other drugs. Consider initial treatment with another analgesic adjuvant, such as a tricyclic antidepressant TCA , before pregabalin.
