Patient leaflet - Vitamin B1 tablets 100 mg
1. What Vitamin B1 Tablets are and what they are used for
These tablets are vitamin tablets which
contain thiamine hydrochloride as the
active substance. They are used to treat
thiamine deficiency (when your body does
not have enough of the vitamin).
Even though thiamine is found naturally in many foods, sometimes your body requires a supplement. This may be because your diet does not contain enough thiamine or you may not be absorbing it from your diet effectively. You may also have a special need for extra thiamine, especially if you are excreting it quickly from your body (e.g. in your urine).
2. What you need to know before you take Vitamin B1 Tablets
Do not take Vitamin B1 Tablets:
Ÿ if you are allergic to thiamine
hydrochloride or any of the other ingredients of this medicine (listed in section 6).
Other medicines and Vitamin B1 Tablets
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently taken or might take any other medicines, especially:
Ÿ thiosemicarbazones such as metisazone
(used to treat viral infections)
Ÿ fluorouracil used to treat cancer.
