[Used for] 2 Stars Neuropathy (Vitamin B1) 25 mg vitamin B1 daily, with 50 mg of vitamin B6 daily [Why] 
Taking vitamin B1 combined with vitamin B6 may improve symptoms of diabetic neuropathy. A controlled trial in Africa found that supplementing with both vitamin B1 (25 mg per day) and vitamin B6 (50 mg per day) led to significant improvement of symptoms of diabetic neuropathy after four weeks.83 However, since this was a trial conducted among people in a vitamin B1-deficient developing country, these improvements might not occur in other people with diabetes. Another trial found that combining vitamin B1 (in a special fat-soluble form) and vitamin B6 plus vitamin B12 in high but variable amounts led to improvement in some aspects of diabetic neuropathy in 12 weeks.84 As a result, some doctors recommend that people with diabetic neuropathy supplement with vitamin B1, though the optimal level of intake remains unknown.
