Antihypertensive drugs. Tricyclic antidepressants such as amitriptyline or anticonvulsants such as carbamazepine or sodium valproate; ketamine or lidocaine by intravenous infusion



Neuropathy usually responds to tricyclic antidepressants, such as ametriptyline or antispasmodics such as carbamazepine or sodium valproate; ketamine or lidocaine by intravenous infusion. Which may be useful in some cases.
Neuropathy pain responds only partially to opioid drugs and can be taken into account when other options fail. Corticosteroids may be needed, especially to relieve pressure and then pain in patients with pressure on the nerve.
