Hello, thanks for the query. Pragabalin does help in reducing burning sensation in feet. However, it is very important to achieve a strict glucose control with fasting glucose < 100 mg or closer to 100 mg, pp 150 to 170 mg and hba1c% < 6.8%. Thanks.

Continue prgabalin for 1 month if no improvement then get nerve conduction study of both lower limbs done and consult neurologist.
