Try this dose 600 mg or try a different brand with a good reputation like Natural Factors,NSI,Source Naturals,Jarrow, Life Extension and NOW. other supplements that heal nerves, not mask the pain are L-Carnosine,Benfotiamine and pyridoxamine. The last 2 are chemically modified versions of B vitamins that research has shown to greatly heal diabetic neuropathy."
