Dear lybrate-user,
nervigen np contains pregabalin, nortriptyline and methylcobalamin. This combination is usually given for diabetic neuropathy. From what you describe your pain started after you lifted a heavy weight. If the pain is in the shoulder region it may be a tear in the ligament. Nervigen np can be taken along with metformin and it will not interfere with the action of metformin. You may feel somewhat sleepy when you are on this medicine

Pregabalin is better but it has more side effects like dizziness and vertigo. If you can tolerate pregabalin is better.

Normal levei is 200-900 picogram/ml. Less than 200pg/ml is considered deficient. Deficiency occurs due to strict vegetarian diet,
source- mostly obtained from animal food sources. 1. Take meat/egg/ fish, poultry, diary product like milk & milk product,
2. Vegetarian sources of b12 are milk, butter milk, yogurt. Vegetarians have to take b12 supplement
3. You may have to take injection b12 after consulting doctor, if no relief.

Dear User, it can be taken on an empty stomach at the same time for the duration advised for you. If you feel a burning sensation in the stomach then it is better to take it after a meal.
