DESCRIPTION:

ASMETH-NP is a combination of 3 medicines, i.e. Methylcobalamin, Nortriptyline and Pregabalin. Pregabalin is an alpha-2-delta ligand, which decreases pain by modulating calcium channel activity of the nerve cell. Nortriptyline is a tricyclic antidepressant which increases the level of chemical messengers (serotonin and nor-adrenaline) that stops the movement of pain signals in the brain cells. Methylcobalamin is a form of Vitamin D which helps in the production of Myelin, a substance that protects nerve fibers and rejuvenates damaged nerve cells. Together, they relieve neuropathic pain (pain from damaged nerves). Methylcobalamin is useful in the treatment of nerve pain (neuropathic pain) This medicine calms the damaged or overactive nerves by acting on the brain. Thereby decreasing the pain sensation.
