For the information of our patients

B vitamins are used not only to treat conditions of vitamin deficiency. At high doses, they have much more advanced pharmacological properties, which is explained by the progressive milgamma analgesic and regenerative effect.

Benfotnaminat is a derivative of vitamin B1 - fat-soluble form of this vitamin. Better absorbed (resorbed) by the body when compared to the same amounts of the usual water-soluble vitamin B1. After absorption into the body benfotiamine is converted to vitamin B1. It regulates the catabolism of carbohydrates, which is important for the metabolism of the nerve cells.

Vitamin B12 is essential for cell exchange, for normal hematopoiesis and for the functions of the nervous system. It regulates the biological synthesis of nucleic acids, and thus the formation of new cell nuclei.
