About Fursultiamine
Fursultiamine is a nutritional supplement and vitamin B1 derivative with potential antineoplastic activity. It can be used to study vitamin B1 deficiency, osteoarthritis and cancer.
Fursultiamine is a disulfide derivative of thiamine, or an allithiamine.It was synthesized in Japan in the 1960s for the purpose of developing forms of thiamine with improved lipophilicity for treating vitamin B1 deficiency (i.e., beriberi),and was subsequently commercialized not only in Japan but also in Spain, Austria, Germany, and the United States.
In addition to to its clinical indication of avitaminosis, fursultiamine has been studied in clinical trials for Alzheimer's disease and autistic spectrum disorders with positive but modest benefits. It has also been investigated in improving energy metabolism during exercise and reducing exercise-induced fatigue with conflicting results.
Fursultiamine belongs to a vitamin drug, which can help the body to metabolize normally. When there is a lot of lactic acid accumulation in the body, furathiamine tablets can be added to speed up the metabolism of carbohydrates and reduce the accumulation of lactic acid. It is mainly used as a drug for vitamin supplementation, which can replenish vitamin B1 in the body in a short period of time.
