Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

l have been taking Neurocare plus OD for the past one month but the pain on my left leg is just too much. Which neuro pain killer can I take to ease the pain?

Answered by Dr. Aida Abaz Quka

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com. I understand your concern and would recommend taking Gabapentin or Pregabalin to help improve your situation. I would just advise starting in low dose and increase gradually the dose as tolerated, in order to avoid sedation, which is a common adverse effect of these drugs. It is also necessary taking Vitamin B12 injection in order to help correct vitamin B12 deficiency, which is the main cause of your complaints.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
