What is the thiamine content in Pabrinex (Vitamin B Complex)?

There are no official guidelines to assist in answering this question. I will search for relevant research papers instead.

The FDA Drug Labels for thiamine (PO) do not address this question.

From the Research

Thiamine Content in Pabrinex

• The thiamine content in Pabrinex (Vitamin B Complex) is not explicitly stated in the provided studies 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
• However, Pabrinex is mentioned as a compound vitamin B and C solution that contains thiamine, and is used to treat Wernicke's encephalopathy and prevent delirium in critically ill adults 4, 5.
• The studies provide information on the treatment of thiamine deficiency and Wernicke's encephalopathy, but do not specify the exact thiamine content in Pabrinex.

Treatment of Thiamine Deficiency

• Thiamine deficiency can be treated with parenteral thiamine, with doses ranging from 200-500mg three times a day for 3-5 days, followed by oral thiamine 250-1000mg/day 1.
• The treatment of Wernicke's encephalopathy requires immediate administration of thiamine, with a recommended dose of 200mg thrice daily, preferably intravenously 3.

Safety and Efficacy of Thiamine

• The overall safety of thiamine is very good, with a low risk of anaphylactic reactions 3, 5.
• The risk-benefit ratio for administration of thiamine is favorable, given the potential severity of brain damage in Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome 5.
