Organic acids at physiological pH Pregabalin (Fig. 1), sold under the brand name Lyrica among others, is an anticonvulsant and anxi- olytic medication used to treat epilepsy, neuropathic pain, fibromyalgia, restless leg syndrome, and generalized anxiety disorder. Pregabalin contains both an amino group and carboxylic acid group (gamma-amino acid). Each of these groups can be protonated or deprotonated, depending on the pH of the solution. Pregabalin is taken by mouth.
