August 21, 2014 updated by: Boehringer Ingelheim
Primary objective: To estimate the frequency of adverse events, serious and non-serious in Filipino patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathic pain treated with duloxetine 60mg once daily within the study duration of approximately 6-8 weeks in a naturalistic clinical setting.
