correct dosage for Vitamin B1?

[kimikk]

I have heaRD ABOUT taking extra b1 after drinking and wouldn't mind hearing any information on that as well....

ive heard the tablets are pretty much useless if your coming of binges as the digestive system cant absorve it. Its actualy called thiamine (B1) and to be efective is to be injected intermuscular not a big deal just a little jab.

Hi GB,

I take 200mg a day.

Hope this link helps.

I didn't even know you could get them that big.

I got mine prescribed by my Dr.,but you can get them over the counter in health food shops.
Maybes ask the pharmacist or an assistant in the health food section.

^ Very good advice, ask an expert

I thought that if you take too much vitamins B (of any kind) your body just gets rid of the extra, ahem, naturally when you go to the bathroom, but don't take my word for it, check it out.

When I detoxed / was in rehab everyone was given Thiamine strong as well as Vitamin B Complex strong, and a few times a day. Now I'm drinking every day again I take the regular versions of both. That's in the UK, btw, so no idea how many mg that translates to in the rest of the world.
