Hi. Sorry to hear abt your father. Opioid analgesics are the best in this scenario when used with medications to control neuropathic pain. So a combination of tramadol 50 mg 6th hrly with pregabalin 75 mg twice daily will be good. If he needs a step up of meds the next choice will be morphine itself with pregabalin.
