Pregato 75 (pregabalin) is among the class of anticonvulsants but is commonly used for different neuropathic pains. Most common side effects of pregabalin are dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth, blurred vision, weight gain, and difficulty concentrating.
Stalopam plus (escitalopram) is an antidepressant used to treat depression, anxiety, panic disorders, and obsessive-compulsive disorder. The side effect profile of escitalopram is close to that of other SSRIs, with nausea, somnolence (sleepiness) and gastrointestinal side effects.
Rivotril (clonazepam) belongs to the class of medications called benzodiazepines. Used as a sedative or to decrease seizures or anxiety. It helps by slowing the activity of the nerves in the brain (i.e., the central nervous system). The common side effects are unsteadiness, delayed reaction, dizziness, drowsiness, muscle weakness.
All drugs are well tolerated in various clinical studies over 52 weeks, but have some or the other side effects. Side effects can be mild or severe, temporary or permanent. Not everyone who takes this medication experiences the side effects listed.
