Error: PrismaClient is unable to be run in the browser.

I'm trying to create a build file for my next app but I'm getting the error: Error: PrismaClient is unable to be run in the browser. It says the error is in my /addsubtopics route which is this:
import { db } from "../../lib/db";

export const runtime = "edge"

export async function POST(request: Request) {
try {
const body = await request.json();
const { topicId, subtopicName } = body;

// Perform the necessary logic to create the subtopic for the given topicId
// Use the `db` object to interact with the database and create the subtopic

// Code to create the subtopic
const createdSubtopic = await db.subtopic.create({
data: {
name: subtopicName,
topic: {
connect: {
id: topicId,
},
},
},
});

return new Response(JSON.stringify(createdSubtopic));
} catch (error) {
console.error("Error creating subtopic:", error);
return new Response(null, { status: 500 });
}
}
import { db } from "../../lib/db";

export const runtime = "edge"

export async function POST(request: Request) {
try {
const body = await request.json();
const { topicId, subtopicName } = body;

// Perform the necessary logic to create the subtopic for the given topicId
// Use the `db` object to interact with the database and create the subtopic

// Code to create the subtopic
const createdSubtopic = await db.subtopic.create({
data: {
name: subtopicName,
topic: {
connect: {
id: topicId,
},
},
},
});

return new Response(JSON.stringify(createdSubtopic));
} catch (error) {
console.error("Error creating subtopic:", error);
return new Response(null, { status: 500 });
}
}
I also tried checking to see if I was trying to run PrismaClient in a client component but these are the only places where I use prisma client (attached screenshot) Anyone know how I can fix this?
