How Matilda ER works

Matilda PG ER Tablet is a combination of two medicines: Methylcobalamin/Mecobalamin and Pregabalin.

Pregabalin is an alpha 2 delta ligand which decreases the pain by modulating calcium channel activity of the nerve cells. Together, they relieve neuropathic pain (pain from damaged nerves).
