B. Gabapentin Antidepressant and antiseizure drugs such as gabapentin may be beneficial in the treatment of neuropathic pain, which is often resistant to opioids. Furosemide is a diuretic and therefore is not a treatment option for neuropathic pain. Metoclopramide is an antiemetic and would not be used to treat neuropathic pain. Morphine sulfate is an analgesic and would not be used to treat neuropathic pain. Hope this helps
