Is Pirenzepine approved in the USA. Has anyone tried it and what were the results. I’ve read quite a lot about it and it seems to be the first medication that offers a cure.

From what I've read, pirenzepine is still in the final study stages. The drug itself had been around for gastric issues for a long time, but the topical form for neuropathy isn't approved yet.
I hope we see something soon.

My understanding is no. See: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/stage-2-trials-of-pirenzepine-for-neuropathy/
This is also the reason that Stage 3 trials are on hold as it became to expensive to have to get the drug OK'ed vs. just getting the use for peripheral neuropathy approved.
