Thiamine chloride is intended to compensate for the deficiency of vitamin B 1 in the body.
Vitamin B 1 (thiamine) dissolves in water, in the process of phosphorylation in the body it turns into cocarboxylase, which participates in many enzymatic reactions as a coenzyme. Vitamin B 1 is necessary for the body to ensure the normal metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins and fats, the processes of conducting nervous excitation in synapses.
Pharmacokinetics
The level of thiamine concentration in the blood is relatively low, mainly free thiamine circulates in plasma, and its phosphorus esters circulate in erythrocytes and leukocytes.
The process of phosphorylation of the vitamin is carried out in the liver. The phosphate ester thiamine diphosphate has coenzyme activity. The accumulation of thiamine mainly occurs in the liver, brain, heart, kidneys, spleen. The myocardium and striated muscles contain 50% of the total, in the internal organs - 40%.
It is excreted through the kidneys and intestines.
