I have been doing research on new studies to help with peripheral neuropathy. It has affected my hands lately making them weaker and painful. It started in my feet about 2 years ago but was manageable. My bloods are normal, my sugars are great, I’m healthy. But this damn numbness and pain is irritating. I was on gabapentin but I don’t like the side effects. I’ve also been taking NAC, fish oil, l-carn, b vitamin complex, and ALA for several months but haven’t noticed a difference.
I ran into a drug called Pirenzepine that is being trialed right now and is showing promise for healing damaged nerves. I can buy the tablets but in the trials they use a gel that they apply to the feet. It looks like they use DMSO or something similar if not that. I believe the trials use either 75mg or up to 150mg.
So the tablets are 25mgs. And I know I can buy dmso. But how do I go about making my own gel? Is it as easy as grinding up some pills in a mortar and pestle and dissolving them in some DMSO gel? Is it much more complicated than that?
Or am I just being stupid with this idea?
