Pregabalin is actually an anticonvulsant, which has also been proven to help with certain types of nerve pain.

This is a pretty broad category of medications, as you can see here:

If you are looking for the ones that can specifically help with pain, like Pregabalin, which are GABA Analogues, there is only one other available on the U.S. market and that is Gabapentin, also sold under the brand name Neurontin.

It can cause the same side effects, such as: nausea, drowsiness, dizziness and weight issues.
