vitamine B1 PRESCRIPTION

iI have read the posts about vitamin B1; and I recently suggested my neurologist he could give me a prescription to get B1 besides the classical treatment with leva dopa but he refused. . Has anybody checked if any neurologist in France or UK has ever prescribed that product as a complement to levadopa ? It seems that they are reluctant and I wonder why . Conservatism or fear of expériencing something that seems to have given results with the Italian professor (I forgot his name) or may be side effects ? Sorry for my mistakes in English if any . Thanks a lot

Because in the absence of an effective cure or treatment, by force of things, "we are left to ourselves". That is why it exists HU where "we can be left to ourselves all together".

PS the doctor name is Antonio Costantini.

Buon Giorno Gio,

Non parlo italiano but you either speak English well or you are using deepl very effectively.

I think you may be the one who mentioned s source for injectable B1. We are in Grenoble, France right now ( doing a house exchange) It would not be too difficult to drive to Italy. Can we buy injectable B1 in low dose ampules in a pharmacy? Is a prescription necessary?

I think there was a German or Swiss or Italian company that would ship within the EU. (It was very cumbersome to ship internationally to the US...expensiive and lots of paperwork.)

I hope you are doing well. I enjoy your posts.

Where do you live?

Grazie, Merci, Thanks,

Barbara

I buy it here:

In Germany not need prescription, in France I dont Know.

I live near Como Lake Italy.

I recently switched to the pills 1.5 grams a day, because I got tired of the stings and I do not find much difference except that they taste bad.

Also B1 in Pills will be good.

Ciao

Grazie.

Are you in the middle of a great wave, too? So hot here for over a week but at least the humidity is low.

I ordered the B1 injectable. I don't know whether my husband will stab himself but maybe....

He's been taking B1 HCl but hasn't responded ...no negatives, no positives. Dx 2 years ago. Tremors, micrographia, word retrieval problems, occasional swallowing difficulty. He's exercising like mad at home and we're walking lots here so he's doing pretty well.

Encore une bonne journée....ancora un giorno buono

It's very hot here, too. It's supposed to rain tomorrow.

It's worth a try.

Good holiday, in the end it will be all right, do not give up.

Bonne journée à vous aussi. Compliments pour le bon Français et le Italien.

PS In my opinion, the b1 always works even if you don't see it sometimes. Then when you stop, you feel the difference. :-) :-) :-)

You do not need a prescription for Thiamine HCL (B1). You can buy it over the counter or internet (Amazon). Rarely a doctor will admit B1 is helpful.

It’s not very expensive from vitacost.
