Medicinal Benefits

B-Complex Tablet contains Thiamine. It is used to address thiamine deficiency resulting from disease, drugs, or alcoholism. It is also used to treat Beri-Beri, Wernicke’s encephalopathy, Korsakoff’s psychosis, and various chronic conditions. Thiamine binds with ATP (the energy currency of the cell) and forms thiamine diphosphate, a molecule that mediates various processes in energy-producing pathways in the body, such as carbohydrate metabolism and hexose-uptake in the HMP pathway. Thereby, thiamine converts food into energy and finds application in the treatment of various states produced by its deficiency.
