Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Patient with Post-Herpetic Neuralgia (PHN) as defined as pain present for more than 6 months after the onset of a herpes zoster skin rash affecting the trigeminal, cervical, thoracic, lumbar, or sacral regions.
* Based on patient diary information collected during the Baseline week (day -7 to randomization Day 1), patient has completed at least 5 diary entries and has an average weekly pain rating of at least 4 on the 11-point pain rating scale.
* The patient is able to satisfactorily complete, in the Investigator's judgment, the Cognitive Battery.
* Male or female, 18-85 years of age.

Exclusion Criteria

* Other severe pain that may potentially confound pain assessment.
* History of complete lack of response to pregabalin (at least 300 mg qd for 4 weeks) or gabapentin (at least 1800 mg qd for 4 weeks).
* Hemoglobin A1c \> 9%
* Hemoglobin ≤ 9 g/dL.
* Active herpes zoster or known viral infection.
* Previous neurolytic or neurosurgical therapy for PHN.
* Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) according to the re-expressed abbreviated (four-variable) Modification of Diet in Renal Disease (MDRD) Study equation ≤ 40ml/min/1.73m2.
* Patients who have been on a stable dose of anticonvulsant,anticholinergic, antiviral medications, nicotine replacements, or any other smoking cessation medications for \<4 weeks prior to randomization. Patients who are on stable doses for =\> 4 weeks prior to randomization are allowed, however, there should be no adjustments to the dose of these medications during study.
* Patients currently on more than one drug for treatment of neuropathic pain (low dose opioids, antidepressants, or anticonvulsants). Patients are allowed to participate if on a stable dose for at least 4 weeks prior to randomization (Day1) and should remain stable during course of study.
