for injection Thiamine Sterop contains the active substance thiamine ( vitamin B1) as thiamine hydrochloride. Thiamine is a water-soluble vitamin that belongs to a group of drugs called “B vitamins”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sometimes your body needs supplements of vitamin B1, because your diet does not contain enough thiamine or because you cannot absorb thiamine in your diet. You may also have an extra need for thiamine if you excrete the substance in a shorter time than normal (for example via the urine).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Thiamine Sterop is used to cure or prevent\u00a0thiamine\u00a0deficiency (when there is too little\u00a0thiamine\u00a0in your body), such as in\u00a0Beri-Beri\u00a0disease,\u00a0chronic\u00a0alcoholism, or Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The thiamine contained in Thiamine\u00a0Sterop may also be approved to treat other conditions not mentioned in this product information.\u00a0Ask your doctor, pharmacist, or another healthcare professional if you have any further questions, and always follow their instructions.
