Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care System Area Prescribing Committee (APC)

The Surrey Heartlands Integrated Care System (ICS) Area Prescribing Committee has agreed a NON-FORMULARY traffic light status for pregabalin, based on the fact that pregabalin has the same mode of action as gabapentin which is not recommended by NICE (CG150), to be offered to patients for the prophylactic treatment of migraine.
