| Usage: | Neurotropic B group vitamins play crucial roles as coenzymes in the nervous system. Particularly Vitamin B1 (Thiamine), Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) & Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin) contribute essentially to the maintenance of a healthy nervous system. Vitamin B1 acts as a site-directed antioxidant; Vitamin B6 balances nerve metabolism; Vitamin B12 maintains myelin sheaths.Their importance is highlighted by many neurological diseases related to deficiencies in one or more of these vitamins. Deficiencies of these vitamins can occur mainly in elderly individuals, diabetics, alcoholics, dialysis patients, patients with gastrointestinal diseases etc. and may lead to neurological disturbances e.g. Peripheral neuropathy. On the other hand neurological adverse effects like ataxia, sensory neuropathy etc. have been demonstrated with long-term or high dose use of these vitamins specially Vitamin B6. |
