Target snapshot

Perioperative Pregabalin (Perioperative Pregabalin) — McMaster University. Pregabalin binds to the alpha-2-delta subunit of voltage-gated calcium channels in the central nervous system, reducing the release of excitatory neurotransmitters and thereby decreasing neuropathic pain and anxiety.
