Neuropathy treatment: Most medical treatments for neuropathy address the pain that may be associated. They rarely treat the cause. These treatments may be Lyrica, (pregabalin) Gabapentin, or Amitripyline for example. These do not work for everyone, but most people find they can help if pain is a problem.
