Pregabalin treatment of three cases with brachioradial pruritus

Abstract

Brachioradial pruritus (BRP) is a rare type of chronic pruritus that usually localized at the dorsolateral part of the forearms. Itching, burning, or pain are common symptoms at the involved areas. The etiological factors are still unknown but sun exposure and/or cervical spine lesions seem to be trigerring or precipiting factors. Neuropathogenic mechanism plays role in etiopathogenesis of BRP, therefore, antiepileptic drugs such as gabapentin, oxcarbazepine. and pregabalin are suggested medications for BRP. Herein, we report three cases with BRP successfully treated with pregabaline.
