methylecobalamine 1500 mcg + pyridoxine 100 mg + niacinamide 100 mg + benzyl alcohol

Product Description

• Methylcobalamin (1500 mcg): This is an active form of vitamin B12. It plays a crucial role in nerve function, red blood cell formation, and DNA synthesis. It's often used to treat vitamin B12 deficiency and certain types of nerve pain (neuropathy). The dosage of 1500 mcg (or 1.5 mg) is quite high and is usually given to rapidly replenish B12 levels or address specific neurological conditions.

• Pyridoxine (100 mg): This is vitamin B6. It is involved in numerous metabolic processes, including the metabolism of amino acids, carbohydrates, and fats. It also plays a vital role in brain development and function, as well as the production of neurotransmitters. It can be used to treat vitamin B6 deficiency and may have a role in managing certain types of neuropathy and nausea. The dosage of 100 mg is relatively high and is often used for therapeutic purposes rather than just supplementation.

• Niacinamide (100 mg): This is a form of vitamin B3 (niacin). It's involved in energy metabolism and cellular signaling. It has various potential benefits, including improving skin health, reducing inflammation, and supporting nerve function. The dosage of 100 mg is also on the higher side and may be used for specific therapeutic effects.

• Benzyl Alcohol: This is included as a preservative in the injectable formulation to prevent the growth of bacteria or other microorganisms. It also has some local anesthetic properties.
