Many patients notice an improvement in energy within 24 to 72 hours after treatment

11 Its also important to note that taking B12 in combination with vitamin B6 and folate (rather than alone) is shown to be most effective for regulating homocysteine levels for some patients and preventing the combined risk of stroke, myocardial infarction (heart attack), and damage to heart cells
Williams notes the following antidepressant options that may help treat neuropathy: Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs), such as fluoxetine (Prozac) and sertraline (Zoloft), which restore the chemical balance in the nerve cells of the brain Serotonin and norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs), such as duloxetine (Cymbalta) and venlafaxine (Effexor), which inhibit the production and release of specific neurotransmitters, including serotonin and norepinephrine Norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (NRIs), which inhibit the reuse of the neurotransmitters dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine Serotonin receptor modulators, such as trazodone (Oleptro), which increase the levels of serotonin and norepinephrine in the brain available to transmit signals to other nerves Common over-the-counter medications can provide some relief from mild-to-moderate neuropathic pain, according to Williams
