Default I think the degree of reversal of the neuropathy--

--would very much depend on the original cause.

The B-vitamins are neuroprotective (although one has to watch out for megadosing B6 if one has particular metabolic profiles), and of course one can experience small fiber neuropathy from deficiencies of B1, B2, B12, and others.
But given the difficulty and slowness of nerve regeneration, the amount of relief and reversal one can get would be highly variable.

It's not that one shouldn't optimize one's supplemental vitamins and/or minerals, but the results one gets are likely to be highly variable and cause dependent--I doubt, for example, that one who has neuropathy from certain blood autoimmunites such as monoclonal gammopathy (MGUS) is going to see that much effect just from supplements alone--the underlying autoimmune problem needs to be treated as well.
