Welcome to NeuroTalk:
The DRUGS you are mentioning do not heal neuropathy. They only mask symptoms. Whatever is causing the problems continues, and escalates and the drugs stop working or people cannot tolerate increasing doses.
I invite you to read our PN forum, and subforum, to see the many causes and interventions that may help you find your trigger, and then treat the CAUSE so your nerves may heal. That is the only long range solution available now.
IVIG which is very expensive is used to combat some autoimmune inflammatory fast progressing neuropathies. It is the only DRUG out there with healing potential.
Pain relievers, anti-seizure meds like pregabalin and gabapentin do not change anything, or heal. They mask symptoms only.
