Don't know, but you could google it and find out.  Do a search for leg nerve pain and see what you come up with.  I have neuropathy and the dr. gave me a med called neurontin.  I still have it and hate it so I don't use it.  Do you remember what kind of med it is.....pain med, anti-inflammatory, etc?  If you can't find it on a google search, call your dr. or a pharmacist.  Good luck.  M'lady

I was given cymbalta to  help this too, I have been on it now 6  months. It has helps very little, with my legs.  My Dr. has given me loritabs, and that is all I have found to help, along with rubbing my leggs with warm oil and rubbing them  alot.  I will also try  what MsChif is saying,  after I talk it over with  my Dr.  to see if it would interfere with my meds., as Ill try anything at this point myself.  I wish you relief,  hugs Vickie

Try taking an amino acid called Acetyl-L-Carnintine aka ALC.  It works wonders for neuropathy.  Take it on an empty stomach with B&C vitamins. 

Alpha-lipoic acid is a wonderful anti-oxidant that is helpful for neuropathy.   600 mgs daily is recommended.

 Supplementing with 4 grams of evening primrose oil per day for six months has been found to reverse the cause of nerve damage.

You will also want to increase your mineral intake.  The best way to take minerals, for maximum absorbtion, is in a colloidal formula.

Remember to give natural therapies 4-6 weeks before you start seeing and/or feeling results.

Hope this helps.

Are you talking about peripheral neuropathy?  If so, I took neurontin for a couple of years for the pain.  Then the doctor put me on Lyrica.  They also recommend cymbalta now. I hope I  was able to help you.

Take Care,
