Nurokind is a Vitamin B complex supplement, sometimes given to treat Diabetic Neuropathy and other cardiovascular diseases.
It contains:
Folic acid 1.5 mg
Alpha lipoic acid 100 mg
Methylcobalamin 1.5 mg (a form of vitamin B-12)
Vitamin B1 10 mg
Vitamin B6 3 mg
Since it is a dietary supplement, the side effect profiles, interactions with other medications and actual proof that it helps does not exist.
Too much Vitamin B12 can also be dangerous and cause or aggravate other health problems, so it should be only used under a doctor's supervision. This also means you shouldn't just arbitrarily up your dosage....
