05.0 PHARMACOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
05.1 Pharmacodynamic properties
NEURABEN is a "combination of cyanocobalamin, pyridoxine hydrochloride and benzoyloxymethylthiamine, a new derivative of thiamine. Cyanocobalamin administered orally, is partly bound to intrinsic factor and through this bond is released into the circulation. Pyridoxine hydrochloride is easily absorbed by the intestine. and converted into coenzymes Benzoyloxymethyl-thiamine differs from Thiamine Hydrochloride essentially for a more rapid oral absorption, a higher blood and tissue concentration and a rapid transformation in vivo into thiamine.
Metabolism
Orally administered benzoyloxymethyl thiamine is rapidly converted into thiamine.
05.2 Pharmacokinetic properties
The absorption of Benzoyloxymethyl-thiamine was investigated after oral administration of the radioactive carbon-labeled compound. It was noted in rats that blood and tissue levels of Benzoyloxymethyl-thiamine are higher than those achieved with thiamine hydrochloride. Benzoyloxymethyl-thiamine concentrates in the nervous tissue from the 1st hour up to 24 hours after administration.
05.3 Preclinical safety data
Acute toxicity
Benzoyloxymethyl-thiamine administered orally in the rat did not show a detectable LD50. Intravenously in mice the LD50 is 100-140 mg / kg.
Chronic toxicity
Benzoyloxymethyl-thiamine in rats at a dose of 50-100-200 mg / kg, administered orally for 23 weeks, did not give rise to significant increases in mortality or changes in body weight, autopsy, urinary and humoral findings in animals. treated with respect to controls.
Fetal toxicity
Benzoyloxymethyl-thiamine administered in rats for the entire gestation period orally at a dose of 20 mg / kg per day, did not produce changes in either the number of survivors or the weight of individual animals or alterations in the morphological parameters in subjects born from mothers treated against controls.
