1. What is Neurovit and what is it used for
Neurovit contains a mixture of vitamins B1, B6, and B12, which are particularly important for maintaining
proper metabolism in nerve cells. Like other vitamins, they are essential components of nutrition that cannot be produced by the body.
In the treatment of nervous system disorders, B-group vitamins work by supplementing the associated vitamin B deficiencies and stimulating natural healing processes in nerve tissue.
There are studies indicating that vitamin B6 has analgesic effects.
Neurovit is used in nervous system disorders caused by B-group vitamin deficiencies.
2. Important information before taking Neurovit
When not to take Neurovit
- In case of allergy to thiamine hydrochloride (vitamin B1), pyridoxine hydrochloride (vitamin B6), cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12), or any other component of this medicine (listed in section 6).
- In children and adolescents (under 18 years of age) due to the high dose of vitamins in the medicine.
Warnings and precautions
Before starting to take Neurovit, you should discuss it with your doctor or pharmacist.
If the daily dose of vitamin B6 exceeds 50 mg for a longer period, or if the dose exceeds 1 g of vitamin B6 for a shorter period, it may cause a feeling of tingling and numbness in the hands or feet (symptoms of peripheral neuropathy or paresthesia). If the patient experiences tingling or numbness or other undesirable effects, they should contact their doctor, who will change the dosage or recommend discontinuing the medicine.
Children and adolescents
Neurovit should not be taken by children and adolescents (under 18 years of age) due to the high doses of active substances in the medicine.
Neurovit and other medicines
You should tell your doctor or pharmacist about all medicines you are currently taking or have recently taken, as well as any medicines you plan to take.
- Vitamin B6 may be ineffective if taken with the cytostatic agent 5-fluorouracil (a medicine used to treat cancer).
- Antacids (used to treat stomach acid) may reduce the absorption of vitamin B6 by the body.
- Long-term use of certain diuretics, such as furosemide, may cause vitamin B6 deficiencies due to increased excretion of vitamin B6 in the urine.
- Concomitant use with L-dopa (a medicine used to treat Parkinson's disease) may reduce the effectiveness of L-dopa.
- If Neurovit is taken with medicines that reduce the level of vitamin B6 in the body (such as isoniazid, hydralazine, D-penicillamine, or cycloserine), the need for vitamin B6 may increase.
Neurovit with food, drink, and alcohol
Food increases the absorption of vitamin B6 from the gastrointestinal tract, so the tablets should be taken after a meal, with a small amount of liquid.
The absorption of vitamin B6 is reduced by alcohol and tea.
If vitamin B6 is taken with beverages containing sulfites (e.g., wine), it may decompose and lose its properties.
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
If the patient is pregnant or breastfeeding, thinks they may be pregnant, or plans to have a child, they should consult their doctor or pharmacist before taking this medicine.
Neurovit should not be taken during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
During pregnancy and breastfeeding, the daily need for vitamins should be met through a balanced diet. Due to the high dose of vitamins in the medicine, Neurovit is intended for use only in cases of vitamin deficiency and should be used only on the advice of a doctor, who will carefully weigh the potential benefits and risks.
Vitamins B1, B6, and B12 pass into breast milk. High doses of vitamin B6 may reduce milk production.
The doctor will decide whether Neurovit can be taken during pregnancy or breastfeeding in specific cases.
Driving and operating machinery
Neurovit does not affect the ability to drive or operate machinery.
3. How to take Neurovit
This medicine should always be taken according to the doctor's or pharmacist's recommendations. In case of doubts, you should consult a doctor or pharmacist.
The recommended dose is 1 tablet once a day.
In individual cases, the dose may be increased to 1 tablet three times a day.
The tablets should be swallowed whole, taken after meals, and washed down with a small amount of liquid.
Use in children and adolescents
Neurovit should not be taken by children and adolescents under 18 years of age.
Taking a higher dose of Neurovit than recommended
Vitamin B6
Taking doses higher than 50 mg of vitamin B6 per day for a longer period (more than 6-12 months) or doses exceeding 1 g of vitamin B6 per day for a shorter period (more than 2 months) may lead to nerve damage (neurotoxic effect). After taking a dose higher than 2 g per day, nerve damage has been reported, manifesting as movement disorders, sensory disturbances (tingling, numbness), seizures, and in very rare cases, changes in blood test results and inflammatory skin reactions.
Vitamin B6
In very rare cases, after taking very high doses, allergic reactions, rashes, and a mild form of angioedema have been observed.
Missing a dose of Neurovit
You should not take a double dose to make up for a missed dose, but take the next dose at the right time.
In case of doubts related to the use of the medicine, you should consult a doctor or pharmacist.
