A member asked:
Is there any medicine for neurofibroma? what are its management techniques?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: If you are asking if there is a specific medication that will make a neurofibroma go away-there is not. There are some medications that may help with the symptoms of a neurofibroma. Neurofibromas are intertwined with the normal nerve fibers. This can lead to severe pain which may be treated with medications like neurontin (gabapentin). These may be addressed surgically if large and compressing vital structures.
