Thiamine Hydrochloride 100mg Tablets - 100 Tablets (Brand May Vary)

Thiamine hydrochloride 100mg tablets are a medicine used to treat vitamin B1 (thiamine) deficiency. This listing is for 100 tablets; the supplied brand may vary. Use the directions and patient leaflet for the actual medicine supplied.

Use and dose

Take only the dose recommended by your doctor or pharmacist. The amount and strength needed depend on the severity and cause of deficiency; do not diagnose or choose treatment for serious deficiency yourself. Swallow with water. A score line does not always divide a tablet into equal doses: the Accord and Flamingo 100mg tablet scores are only to help swallowing. Do not halve it to obtain a 50mg dose unless the supplied product’s leaflet and a healthcare professional specifically confirm this is appropriate.

Warnings and precautions

• Do not take if allergic to thiamine or any ingredient. Ask the pharmacist to confirm suitability and the supplied brand’s age restrictions; Accord and Flamingo 100mg tablets are not recommended under age 3.
• Check with your doctor or pharmacist before use in pregnancy or breastfeeding; the Accord 100mg product is not intended for use during pregnancy or lactation.
• The Accord formulation contains lactose and sucrose. Flamingo tablets contain lactose, with maize starch, pregelatinised starch, magnesium stearate and talc. Other brands can have different ingredients; tell the pharmacist about allergies or sugar intolerances.
• Tell the pharmacist about all medicines, particularly fluorouracil or thiosemicarbazone treatments, and tell staff before urine or other laboratory tests because thiamine can interfere with certain results.

Side effects and storage

Nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea or abdominal pain may occur. Stop and seek urgent help for breathing difficulty, swelling or another severe allergic reaction. Check your response before driving. Keep out of children’s sight and reach, in the original packaging, and follow the supplied brand’s storage directions; Accord tablets are stored below 25°C. Do not use after expiry.

No. The brand may vary; read the actual pack label and leaflet. Ask our pharmacist if you need a particular formulation.
