Brillior Adverse Reactions

The pregabalin clinical program involved over 12000 patients who were exposed to pregabalin, of whom over 7000 were in double-blind placebo-controlled trials. The most commonly reported adverse reactions were dizziness and somnolence. Adverse reactions were usually mild to moderate in intensity. In all controlled studies, the discontinuation rate due to adverse reactions was 14% for patients receiving pregabalin and 5% for patients receiving placebo. The most common adverse reactions resulting in discontinuation from pregabalin treatment groups were dizziness and somnolence.
Selected adverse drug reactions that were treatment related in the pooled analysis of clinical trials are listed in the table as follows by System Organ Class (SOC). The frequency of these terms has been based on all-causality adverse drug reactions in the clinical trial data set (very common (≥1/10), common (≥1/100, <1/10), uncommon (≥1/1000, <1/100) and rare (<1/1000)).
The adverse reactions listed may also be associated with the underlying disease and/or concomitant medications. (See Table 2.)
