Neuropathy pills: How to avoid scams?

My pain doctor recommended 200 mg of alpha lipoic acid three times a day for the neuropathic pain. ALA is widely used in Europe for that purpose. A clinical trial found ALA was as effective as gabapentin in relieving the pain. There is also evidence that ALA may help to heal peripheral nerves. I believe this supplement does reduce my pain. It can cause heartburn. I'm careful to sit upright for about an hour after I take it.

I've tried ALA as well, but feel nauseous every time I take the pill, then followed by that heartburn feeling you mention.
I wonder if there's a supplement that has no taste, and is somehow buffered?
I think the brand i was using is NOW.

Is alpha lipoic acid a prrscription or Omer the counter?

Where can I get 200 mg of alpha lipoic acid.
