Diabetic Neuropathy is difficult to treat. Medicines need to be started in low dose and then the dose needs to be increased gradually if needed. Some patients do not respond to particular drugs and then the drugs need to be changed.
Also there can be other causes for neuropathy other than diabetes that need to be ruled out.
