It's a very good medicine. But who r in treatment with akt have seen deficiency of b5 which cause numbness. You can add b5 for one month 5 mg at night, if numbness decrease you can take it. B active is name.

Dear lybrate-user, your doctor has diagnosed your problem as a peripheral neuropathy and investigations are not going to add anything extra, the detailed examination by your doctor using "instruments and pins" is commendable. He has treated you also corectly. Kidney disease is often complicated by peripheral neuropathy. I sincerely advise that you follow your neurologist.
