Abstract (en)

[origin: WO03075906A1] The present disclosure is directed to methods for alleviating the symptoms associated with peripheral neuropathy by administering R(-)-desmethylselegiline, S(+) desmethylselegiline, or a combination of the two. The neuropathy may be the result of a genetically inherited condition, a systemic disease, or exposure to a toxic agent. The disclosure is also directed to a method for treating patients with cancer by administering a chemotherapeutic agent known to have a toxic affect on peripheral nerves together with R(-)-desmethylselegiline, S(+) desmethylselegiline, or a mixture of the two.
