Pregabalin contradiction?
"Antidepressant medications, such as amitriptyline have shown good efficacy in treating trigeminal neuralgia, especially if combined with an anti-convulsant drug such as pregabalin.[27]"
This is in contradiction with the article on Pregabalin:
"Pregabalin is not recommended for certain other types of neuropathic pain such as trigeminal neuralgia[31] and its use in cancer-associated neuropathic pain is controversial.[31]" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pregabalin)
What gives?

- By now the statement is no longer there so I can't check the source either, but pregabalin is commonly used as a second-line TN treatment when things like carbamazepine fail, and this is mentioned in a number of papers, so should someone want to add the statement again, I am confident there is a lot to (not) back it.

- Thanks for this, interesting for both my job and the article. - After briefly reading this article I did not substantial improvements that need to be made. Will work on it soon. PainProf (talk) 15:25, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
Epidemiology cited wrongly
Hi, The epidemiology of trigeminal neuralgia is wrongly cited from the source. Instead of 1 in 8000 per year it should be 12 in 100000 a year.
