Pharmacology

Injection : It is used when the oral route is not feasible or when rapid correction of vitamin B-group is needed. It can be given intramuscularly or intravenously (slowly) in a dose of 2 mL daily or as advised by the Registered Physician.

Interactions

Pyridoxine may increase the peripheral metabolism of levodopa, reducing therapeutic efficacy in patients with Parkinson's disease.

Hypersensitivity to any of its components.

Side effects

Precautions and warnings

It should be given cautiously to patients taking levodopa as pyridoxine reduces the effect of levodopa. Hypersensitivity may develop in patients previously given thiamine, specially after repeated injections of concentrated solution; give subsequent injections with care. Discontinue drug if untoward reactions develop. Intramuscular administration may cause transient pain; when used undiluted, administer slowly.
