Benefits of vitamin D as an additional therapy in painful diabetic neuropathy: Case report and recent literature review
The common chronic complication from diabetes mellitus (DM) is painful diabetic neuropathy. The available symptomatic treatment with standard therapy is not sufficient for pain reduction. Previous studies showed that vitamin D deficiency was common in type 2 diabetes. Some studies report the benefit of vitamin D supplementation. We report a case of a type 2 diabetic 54-year-old obese female with painful diabetic neuropathy. The combination of lifestyle modifications and 2000 IU vitamin D supplementation improved neuropathy eight weeks of therapy symptoms. The literature search found a valid article that supports the use of combined exercise and vitamin D supplementation. Further research with a larger sample and better design is warranted.
