HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Sukrol by Laboratorio Farmamedica
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
Sukrol contains four active ingredients. Thiamine (vitamin B1) helps your body convert food into energy and supports nerve function.
Lecithin is a fatty substance that aids fat breakdown and is sometimes used for brain health, though evidence for cognitive benefit is limited. Glutamic acid is an amino acid involved in protein synthesis and nerve signaling.
Monosodium phosphate is a mineral salt that plays a role in bone and energy metabolism. The product also contains several inactive ingredients (fillers and binders) including lactose, corn starch, talc, and food colorings.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Thiamine in this product is effective for thiamine deficiency and Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome (a serious brain condition caused by severe thiamine lack). It's possibly effective for period pain (dysmenorrhea), but the evidence is limited.
Lecithin shows insufficient reliable evidence for age-related cognitive decline, anxiety, or bipolar disorder, and is likely ineffective for Alzheimer disease. We don't have effectiveness data on file for glutamic acid or monosodium phosphate in this product.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Thiamine is generally very safe when taken by mouth in normal doses. Allergic skin reactions are rare; they happen with injected thiamine much more often than with tablets.
Lecithin is generally well tolerated, though some people report mild stomach upset (abdominal pain, diarrhea, fullness, nausea), and anyone with an egg or soy allergy should be cautious since lecithin can trigger reactions in those individuals. Both thiamine and lecithin are rated Likely Safe in pregnancy and breastfeeding, though you should use supplement doses only as your provider recommends.
Meds to double-check
Minor interactions only
If you take trimethoprim (Proloprim), let your pharmacist know — it's a Minor interaction but it's worth monitoring. We couldn't verify data for all ingredients in this product, so it's especially important to check your full medication list with the search tool on this page before starting.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. Only minor medication interactions are documented, and safety information is well characterized.
Sukrol is a straightforward vitamin and nutrient tablet best suited for people with thiamine deficiency or those wanting general nutritional support. If you take trimethoprim or any other regular medications, check them against this product first.
Anyone with egg or soy allergies should be aware that lecithin can trigger a reaction. Talk to your pharmacist before starting if you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or on prescription drugs.

Sukrol by Laboratorio Farmamedica Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Sukrol by Laboratorio Farmamedica contains one ingredient we've checked for interactions: thiamine.
The main interaction we have on file is with trimethoprim (Proloprim), an antibiotic used for certain infections. Trimethoprim can block how your body clears thiamine, which paradoxically raises thiamine levels in your blood — a Minor interaction that's unlikely to cause real problems, but worth knowing about.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
We could not check two other active ingredients in this product: glutamic acid and monosodium phosphate. We hold no interaction data for either one.

Thiamine
Trimethoprim (Proloprim)
Trimethoprim might increase blood levels of thiamine.
In vitro, animal, and clinical research suggest that trimethoprim inhibits intestinal thiamine transporter ThTR-2, hepatic transporter OCT1, and renal transporters OCT2, MATE1, and MATE2, resulting in paradoxically increased thiamine plasma concentrations.
