Always take this medicine exactly as described or exactly as your doctor or pharmacist has told you.The recommended dose for adults is 1 film-coated tablet 1 to 3 times daily, which corresponds to a daily dose of 100 - 300 mg vitamin B1 and vitamin B6.The maximum daily dose should not be exceeded.

After four weeks of therapy, the doctor should decide whether the administration of vitamin B1 and B6 in high doses is still necessary.

If you have taken more than you should, vitamin B1 taken orally is of little harm.Poisoning in the strict sense is unknown.Only very high doses (over 10 g) can block the transmission of stimuli from nerve cells.The toxic potential of vitamin B6 is considered to be very low.With long-term intake of daily doses of more than 50 mg of vitamin B6 and with short-term intake of daily doses of more than 1 g of vitamin B6, abnormal sensations such as tingling or pins and needles can occur in the hands and feet.In the event of an overdose, there are no substance-specific countermeasures;it must be treated according to the complaints.

Do not take a double dose if you forget to take the previous dose.For successful treatment, it is important that you take the medicine for the full length of time recommended by your doctor.
