Pregabalin: a new approach to treatment of the dysautonomic crisis.
Nausea and dysautonomic crises severely limit function and quality of life for a large number of individuals with familial dysautonomia. We treated a small cohort of 15 patients with familial dysautonomia who suffered frequent dysautonomic crises with pregabalin. Nausea and overt crises markedly decreased in 13 (87%) of these patients and the overall assessments of benefit were extremely favorable, suggesting that pregabalin may be a potentially useful therapeutic agent for this disorder.
