Overview
Pharmacologic medical therapy is recommended among patients with peripheral neuropathy. Peripheral neuropathy, caused by various central and peripheral nerve disorders, is especially problematic because of its severity, chronicity and resistance to simple analgesics. According to the cause of the peripheral neuropathy, treatments vary from the choice drug, the dosage of drug and the time of the treatment. Treatments for peripheral neuropathy are generally palliative. Pharmacologic medical therapies for peripheral neuropathy include: Topical lidocaine, Gabapentin, pregabalin, Amitriptyline, Nortriptyline, imipramine, mixed serotonin–norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors, Tramadol, buprenorphine, Oxycodone, Morphine, Hydrocodone and Codeine.
