Cautions & Contraindications
Warnings & Precautions
Be careful when giving Vitamin B complex to patients who are taking levodopa, because pyridoxine reduces the effect of levodopa. Some patients who have been given thiamine before may develop hypersensitivity, especially after repeated injections of a concentrated solution. If that happens, give any later injections with care. Stop the medicine if unwanted reactions develop. An intramuscular injection may cause pain for a short time, and when it is used undiluted, it should be given slowly.

Don't take more than the recommended dose of Vitamin B complex unless a doctor has told you to.
⚠️ Talk to your doctor before taking any medicine during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
Storage
