"B vitamins are useful in treating neuropathy since they support healthy nervous system function. Peripheral neuropathy is sometimes caused by a vitamin B deficiency. Supplementation should include vitamin B-1 (thiamine and benfotiamine), B-6, and B-12."
I advice you to speak with your Dr. before taking anything.
