Hi Melinda,
Mag phos may help to some extent, but it partly depends on the cause of your neuropathy. Especially if it's been caused by a medication, more than likely that medication will need to be stopped to end the neuropathy, or if it's already been stopped, it may need to be antidoted from the body. There might be any number of other remedies that could be indicated, too. There are others that come more to mind for neuropathy.But, I think it would be worth a try, in any case. Try it for a week or two and see if it helps. It can't hurt.
Here re some other indications for it:
