I'm really worried about my mom. She's got sciatica, and the pain was just unbearable this morning, so she went to see a doctor. He gave her Pregabalin and Mecobalamin capsules to take. I totally get that the doctor knows his stuff, but I'm just a bit concerned since she also has high blood pressure. Are these capsules safe for her to take? I'd really appreciate any advice or reassurance.
