  • How does pregabalin compare to gabapentin in the treatment of neuropathic pain?: Part of the reason why pregabalin requires lower dosages is that it has a much higher bioavailabilit y (90% versus 33-66%) and is rapidly absorbed (peak: 1 hr). Also, plasma concentrations increase linearly with increasing dose.3 This is not true with gabapentin. Gabapentin is slowly absorbed (peak: 3 to 4 hours post-dose) and more importantly, plasma concentrations have been found to have a non-linear relationship to increasing doses. Pregabalin has been found to have distinct pharmacokineti c advantages over gabapentin.3
