Methylcobalamin

Conclusion: Twenty four published articles were eligible for inclusion in this systematic review in which a range of treatment regimens were evaluated including both B12 monotherapy and B12 in combination with other vitamins or conventional treatments, such as gabapentinoids. Overall, this systematic review demonstrates that there is currently some evidence for the therapeutic effect of B12 in the treatment of post-herpetic neuralgia (level II evidence) and the treatment of painful peripheral neuropathy (level III evidence).

Conclusion: Conclusion: Our findings indicate that mecobalamin in combination may be effective in improving clinical therapeutic efficacy and NCV outcomes for peripheral neuropathy patients, but the evidence is not clear for mecobalamin alone. More high-quality studies are required to confirm this finding.

Conclusion: Our study suggests that herbal medicine and CHM might be more effective than methylcobalamin alone in the management of DPN. Further rigorous studies should be conducted to make more definite conclusions.

Conclusion: The results of the meta-analysis show that treatment with LA-MC for 2-4 weeks is associated with better outcomes in NCV and neuropathic symptoms relative to MC treatment. However larger well-designed studies are required to confirm this conclusion.
