Abstract:
This systematic review assesses the effectiveness and safety of vitamin B supplements for the management of neuropathy in people with diabetes.
Methods:
Several databases including, the Cochrane Neuromuscular Specialised Register, CENTRAL, MEDLINE, Embase and CINAHL Plus were searched from their inception until May 2020.
Results:
Five studies were eligible to be included in this review with a total of 348 participants. Overall, the evidence is too uncertain to draw conclusions on the effects of B vitamins in people with DPN.
Conclusion:
It is uncertain whether vitamin B supplements change pain intensity or impairment in the short or long term in people with DPN.
