Pregabid Gel is generally well tolerated and no common side effects have been reported. However, if you experience any unusual symptoms or allergies, consult your doctor for advice. Discontinue immediately and seek medical help if you experience swelling of the throat, hives, or difficulty breathing, as these may indicate serious allergic reactions.

Although systemic absorption of the gel is minimal, consult your doctor about any other medications you are taking to avoid potential interactions.
