Flupirtine

Hi

Has anyone tried flupirtine for neuropathy, if so what were the results?

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22495792

There is this paper where they used it on someone with neuropathy refrectory to the usual medication. Apparently the side effects are minimal and withdrawal non existent. I guess this varies depending on the individual though.

There is a pain clinic that prescribes it here in London I was thinking of visiting at some point.

Thanks.
