Indications
This vitamin combination is used for supportive nutritional supplementation in conditions where the body needs these vitamins. Some of these conditions use up the vitamins or reduce how well they are absorbed or how much of them the body can use, such as gastrointestinal disorders, chronic alcoholism, febrile illness, prolonged or wasting diseases, hyperthyroidism and poorly controlled diabetes. In others the need for vitamins goes up, as in pregnancy, severe burns and recovery from surgery. It is also used in beri-beri, peripheral neuritis, Wernicke's encephalopathy, and impaired digestion of starch and sugar due to thiamine deficiency. The same list covers cheilosis, angular stomatitis, glossitis, keratitis, seborrhoeic dermatitis, photophobia and corneal vascularization.
⚠️ Always consult a registered physician before taking any medicine.
Pharmacology
Thiamine (vitamin B1) combines with adenosine triphosphate to form thiamine pyrophosphate, an essential coenzyme in carbohydrate metabolism.
Riboflavin (vitamin B2) is needed so the body can get energy from food. It is essential for normal tissue respiration, and it is also necessary for activating pyridoxine and for converting tryptophan to nicotinic acid.
Pyridoxine (vitamin B6) is a water-soluble vitamin that works in the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins and fats. It is essential for Hb formation and for GABA synthesis within the CNS. It also helps release glycogen stored in the liver and muscles.
