Povital is a combination of Vitamin B1 (Thiamine), B6 (Pyridoxine) & B12 (Cyanocobalamin). These vitamins play essential role as co-enzyme for the metabolism of nervous system. Thus this combination normalizes the nerve cell metabolism. Povital® supports the regeneration of nerve fibers and myelin sheath by activation of the metabolism and the natural repair mechanism. The combination of these three vitamins shows better efficacy than that of the individual components. In addition, Vitamin B1, Vitamin B6 & Vitamin B12 promote body's own repair mechanism and work in pain management.
Route of administration: Povital should be taken in oral route or administered intramuscularly. The recommended dose is 1 to 3 Povital® tablets daily or as recommendation of physician. The duration of treatment is stated by the physician. Povital injection may be administered intramuscularly (deep intragluteal) as a dose of 1 ampoule daily in severe cases until the acute symptoms subside. For milder cases and follow-up therapy two or three ampoules per week.
