To start, my apolgies for this question because it has probably been answered many times bofore. I would like to try acetyl l carnitine for my night time pins and needles in my feet due to non diabetic peripheral neuropathy ( I take R-ALA 600 mg at present). Any wisdom on this and what is a typical dosage? It is available in 500 mg, 1000 mg. Thanks in advance.

Does the R-ALA 600 mg you currently take help with the pain at all? I am taking 300 mg gabapentin 2-3 x a day plus 1/2 50 mg tablet of tramadol that mostly handles the pain. I want to try the ALA and possibly the Acetyl L-carnitine but would like to hear how it works for you. I don't have diabetes. I think my neuropathy is caused by post treatment Lyme disease.

I'm not sure there is what you can call a typical dosage but I can share I take 500 mg of Acetyl-L-Carnitine along with 100 mcg Vitamin K2 twice daily (morning and evening) along with 600 mg of na-R-ALA morning and evening and the other supplements included in the Protocol 525 - https://theprotocol525.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Instructions_Introduction.pdf.
