  <description>Pregabalin is an organic compound with the formula C8H17NO2 and an average molecular weight of 159.23 g/mol. Pregabalin belongs to the amino acids, peptides, and analogues, a subclass of carboxylic acids and derivatives within the organic compounds. It is found in healthcare, pharmaceuticals, and veterinary products as an analgesic and is administered via the oral exposure route. In terms of its biological activity, it acts as a modulator of the voltage-dependent calcium channel subunit alpha-2/delta-1 (CACNA2D1) protein target.</description>
