B vitamins are essential for the human body. They support the functioning of the nervous system and brain, improve thinking abilities, participate in hematopoiesis, and regulate metabolism. A deficiency of these substances in the body causes the development of various serious diseases. Fortunately, hypovitaminosis today is easy to overcome with the help of pharmaceuticals. People of all ages are advised to periodically take B vitamin tablets.

How do B vitamins benefit the body?

Group B includes the following beneficial compounds:

• B 1 or thiamine;
• B 2 or riboflavin;
• B 3 or nicotinic acid;
• B 4 or choline;
• B 5 or pantothenic acid;
• B 6 or pyridoxine;
• B 7 or biotin;
• B 8 or inositol;
• B 9 or folic acid;
• B 10 or para-aminobenzoic acid;
• B 12 or cyanocobalamin.

Of the above vitamins, the most necessary for the body are B 1, B 2, B 6 and B 12. They should be taken periodically in tablets. A person needs other substances in small quantities, so they enter the body in abundance along with food. The main symptom of a lack of B vitamins is chronic fatigue syndrome. In this regard, multivitamins based on group B are recommended to be used in the following cases:

• under high intellectual and mental stress;
• with constant stress;
• for diseases of the nervous system;
• for disorders of the functioning of the heart and circulatory system;
• for any chronic pathologies;
• for skin diseases;
• for disorders of the digestive tract.

The main function of B vitamins is to provide the body with energy. It is these substances that play a major role in the formation of glucose from carbohydrates and the metabolism of proteins and lipids. Group B is quite unstable, the compounds are not able to accumulate in tissues, quickly leave the body, and in the current realities it is not always possible to eat a nutritious and varied diet. Therefore, both adults and children are periodically recommended to take vitamin complexes.

Typically, doctors prescribe B vitamins to patients either in injection solutions or tablets. Tablets are more convenient to use than injections. In addition, many people do not like to take vitamin injections because they are quite painful.

ADVICE! You can first take a blood test to understand what problems are in the body and what vitamins it needs.

For pregnant women

Even the cheapest vitamins for pregnant women are selected exclusively by trimester:

First trimester: The child’s body is just beginning to form; it needs various substances, especially folic acid. This is the only vitamin that gynecologists prescribe at the beginning of pregnancy.

This prenatal vitamin is very good, but inexpensive. It is involved in the synthesis of hemoglobin and prevents the development of anemia. You can start taking folic acid long before planning a pregnancy and take it during the first three months of expecting a baby. The dosage is selected by the attending physician.

In the second trimester the emphasis is on calcium, because during this period the little person is actively growing and the mother’s reserves may not be enough. The intake of folic acid is not canceled; vitamins A, E, C and group B are added.

Third trimester- increased need of the body for vitamins C, A, D and iron. These elements in tandem are an excellent prevention of anemia; they eliminate tone in the uterus and participate in the development of the child’s cardiovascular system.




In addition, it is worth preparing for the birth of a child; the body must receive all the necessary substances that are included in multivitamin complexes so that the delivery process goes smoothly.

For nursing mothers

The lactating organism is subject to external changes (hair splits and falls out, nails peel, teeth crumble). To protect yourself from this, you need to fully provide your body with the necessary vitamins (PP, B9, B6, B2, B1, E, C, A, D) and microelements (magnesium, calcium, zinc, silicon, potassium, boron, copper and iron).

It is impossible to do during the period of bearing a baby without folic acid, because it is she who participates in the structure of the placenta and reduces the risk of hypoxia. It can be taken even before pregnancy, because this vitamin accumulates in the body and promotes fertilization. The best ready-made complexes for expectant mothers are:

1. Elevit pronatal.
2. Pregnavit.
3. Vitrum Prenatal forte.
4. Alphabet - Mom's health.
5. Complivit - Mom.

During menopause

During menopause, a woman’s body changes significantly and needs support with multivitamins, because it is attacked by hot flashes, hormonal changes, mood changes, and the risk of cancer increases.

To prevent this from happening, you should focus on the following vitamins: D, E, C, A, group B (especially folic acid) and minerals: iron, calcium and magnesium.

Russian cheap vitamin complexes during menopause can usually be bought at a pharmacy:

For men

Men simply need to take good vitamins, because with their physical and emotional stress it is difficult to keep themselves in good shape. Vitamin complexes should contain the following substances: vitamins E, C, groups B, A, D, as well as microelements: magnesium, phosphorus, zinc, calcium and iron.

Complexes containing B vitamins

We will select for analysis the most popular domestic and imported multivitamins, which are produced in tablet form: Centrum, AlfaVit, Vitrum, Complivit, Supradin, Multi-Tabs, Perfectil, Duovit, Neurobion, Doppelgerts, Milgamma. They can be roughly divided into:

1. combined with minerals,
2. specialized (containing B-complex in increased dosage).

Combined complexes

These include Vitrum, Centrum from A to Zinc, AlfaVit Classic , Perfectil , Complivit , Supradin , Multi-Tabs Classic, Duovit. The entire B-group is present in them:

• B 1 - thiamine,
• B 2 – riboflavin,
• B 5 – pantothenic acid,
• B 6 – pyridoxine,
• B 9 – folic acid,
• At 12 – cyanocobalamin.

In AlfaVit, Vitrum, Duovit, Complivit, Multi-Tabs and Centrum, thiamine, pyridoxine and riboflavin are contained within the daily norm (1–1.5 mg) and vary slightly between drugs.

IN Perfectil and Supradin Compared to other additives in this group, they include more:

• riboflavin 2.5–4 times,
• pyridoxine 5–10 times.

Biotin (B 7) is found only in AlphaVite, Vitrum, Centrum, Perfectile and Supradin, and in Supradin its concentration is an order of magnitude higher compared to the others.

Specialized B-complexes

Such drugs include vitamin B complexes in tablets Milgamma Compositum and Neurobion. The principle of their creation is based on a combination of two or three nutrients interacting with each other in the body, and the concentration in them is increased to therapeutic doses, because they are prescribed to replenish a serious deficiency or in the complex treatment of nervous diseases.

Included Multi-Tabs B-complex all the "bashki" are present, except biotin. Compared to the above-mentioned drugs, it contains increased content:

• riboflavin 3–8 times,
• pantothenic acid 4–6 times (but less than in Perfectil),
• thiamine 10–15 times (but less than in Supradin).

Reducing homocysteine ​​levels in the blood is thought to reduce the incidence of heart disease and Alzheimer's disease. Folic acid and cyanocobalamin (B 12) are involved in the metabolic conversion of homocysteine ​​into the beneficial amino acid methionine.

Clinical studies show that a diet low in these vitamins increases the risk of stroke. Folate and B12 supplementation taken for 3 months reduces homocysteine ​​levels by 32%.

It is on the basis of this combination that supplements are created Doppelhertz Active Folic Acid + Vit. B and Doppelhertz Magnesium + Vit. IN. The folic acid content in them is increased to 0.6 mg, although the amount of B 12 and B 6 differs slightly compared to other complexes of this group.

The triad B 1, B 6 and B 12, which is commonly used to treat peripheral neuropathy, is found in Neurobion. If we compare all the above-mentioned tablet forms, then it contains the highest concentrations of thiamine and cyanocobalamin (20 and 48 times more, respectively), and the amount of B 6 exceeds the average daily dose by 50 times.

A special feature of the drug Milgamma is that it contains a synthetic analogue of vit. In 1 - benfotiamine (100 mg). Its advantage is that it is fat-soluble and therefore is better absorbed in the gastrointestinal tract than thiamine. The dose of pyridoxine in Milgamma, as in Neurobion, is significantly higher than that of all other opponents.

However, we should not forget that when choosing a complex, you do not need to follow the principle “the more, the better,” but remember that each vitamin has its place and time. This is especially true for combinations containing therapeutic rather than prophylactic dosages. Consultation with a doctor will save you from mistakes and help you individually choose the right drug.

Important! Before using any medications, be sure to consult your doctor. Do not self-medicate. Take care of your health!
