In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this clinical trial is to test in patients with diabetic neuropathy, * Can Nevibolol at a dose of 2.5 mg- 10 mg compared with standard pain modulating treatment conserve the mean nerve action potential amplitude (sural and tibial nerves) at 24 weeks follow- up. * Can Nevibolol at a dose of 2.5 mg- 10 mg compared with a combination of Alpha Lipoic Acid (600 mg/day)+EPALRESTAT (150 mg/day) conserve the mean nerve action potential amplitude (sural and tibial nerves) at 24 weeks follow- up * All potential participants will undergo screening- about 10 ml of blood will be drawn to perform the following assesments at screening- HbA1c, FBS,Vit B12, TSH, fT4. * Baseline assessments conducting a nerve conduction study, quality of life assesment using Eq-5D-5L and NRS pain score. * 20% of patients (24 patients) will undergo Sudoscan, Corneal confocal microscopy and a skin biopsy
