Özet

Pregabalin and gabapentin are similar compounds with analgesic, anticonvulsant, and anxiolytic characteristics. Due to these pharmacological features, they are commonly used throughout the world in neuropathic pain treatment and anxiety disorders. Mild to moderate side effects of the central nervous system, such as dizziness and somnolence, are important factors in deciding to terminate the use of pregabalin. Studies have also reported that the use of dose-dependent pregabalin resulted in peripheral edema and weight gain. Described in this case report is hearing loss occurring after an increase in the drug dose of a patient using pregabalin.
