Patients with DPN have more treatment options than ever before, although finding the right combination may take time.
ROY FREEMAN, MD: I think patients must be patient when they take medications. So work with a physician or a medical caretaker who is willing to slowly go through the various medications that are available, and it's likely that either soon, or sooner rather than later, an effective means will be found to substantially ameliorate neuropathic pain.
ANNOUNCER: And by understanding their disease, people with diabetes can significantly reduce the impact of peripheral neuropathy on their lives.
ASTRID ALMODOVAR, MD: The most important thing is that they know what the complications are, they know how to do their self-care, and that they understand that improving their diabetes control will greatly improve their symptoms and their quality of life.
