Randomized Double-Blind Study Comparing the Efficacy of Gabapentin with Amitriptyline on Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy Pain Arch Int Med 159:1931-1937, Morello,C.M.,et al, 1999 See this aricle in Pubmed Article Abstract Although bot drugs provide pain relief, mean pain score and global pain score data indicate no significant difference between gabapentin and amitriptyline. Gabapentin may be an alternative for treating diabetic peripheral neuropathy pain, yet does not appear to offer considerable advantage over amitriptyline and is more expensive. Larger trials are necessary to define gabapentin's place in treating diabetic peripheral neuropathy pain.
