Hello, Thanks for the query. I have seen the details given. You have just mentioned various drugs being taken for diabetes. But no dosage, no information in blood glucose (FBG, PP & HbA1c%). The injection mentioned can be taken if a doctor has prescribed it. Secondly to prevent or to reduce peripheral neuropathy and pain related to that one needs to have a strict glucose control. Ideally FBG < 100 mg, PP 150 to 170 mg & HbA1c% <6.5%. Thanks.

Yes it can be taken. But first get yourself evaluated for the reason for your hand pain. 6 months is a long period and a patient especially diabetic should not ignore such symptoms.
