Background: The incidence of diabetic neuropathy (DNP) is a prominent complication for people suffering from diabetes. DNP is a common complication in patients suffering from diabetes, and it is affecting approximately more than 50% of the population where the nerves are affected by high glucose levels.Objective: The aim of the review paper is to inspect the complications, causes, diagnosis, pathogenesis, treatments, pathways, and management of DNP as all these factors play important role in the management of DNP. This paper also aims to identify the potential cures and the side effects if any associated with the commonly used treatments in conditions of DNP.Methods: The data collected for reviewing was by studying the published researchers from PubMed, Web of Science, Medline, Science Direct, Excerpta Medica Database, Cochrane, Elton B. Stephens Company (EBSCO), and Google open access publications from the year 1995–2017.Results: We have concluded on an interpretation that the drugs for treating DNP are managing the pain and controlling glucose levels but are reportedly causing major side effects. Hence, attention must be given to the potential risk factors for neuropathy and development of formulations with minimal side effects and a potential cure. We have focused on the recent researches, emerging problems, and techniques for identifying the patients suffering from DNP.Conclusion: The incidence of DNP is a prominent complication for people suffering from diabetes. Although the treatment available currently focusses on the pain management in DNP, attention must be given to the potential risk factors for neuropathy and development of formulations with minimal side effects and a potential cure
