Abstract

Group B vitamins are used in various fields of medicine, most commonly in treating diseases of the peripheral and central nervous system, especially in treating pain. Group B vitamins are neurotropic agents; they play an essential role in the functioning of cells, acting as coenzymes in a wide range of catabolic and anabolic enzymatic reactions. They play a role in numerous processes of nervous tissue functioning, including energy production, DNA/RNA synthesis/repair, genomic and non-genomic methylation, and synthesis of many neurochemicals and signaling molecules, which ensures the normal functioning of the central and peripheral nervous system. Among all the B vitamins, these properties are most inherent in thiamine (B1), pyridoxine (B6), and cyanocobalamin (B12).
