I have a low dose (100 mg capsules) on hand, and I might use them if I hadn't had such good luck/results with R-Lipoic Acid and B5. If you've tried all the supplements to no avail, it may be worth trying. I also feel doctors tend to prescribe it (initially) at too high a dose (on the recommendations of BIG PHARMA).
Be aware that it may address some types of PN pain, but not others, and only helps about 30% of patients who try it. It will do nothing for the numbness.
