HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Thiamin Vitamin B-1 100 mg by Geri-Care
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
This product contains one active ingredient: thiamine (also called vitamin B-1), at 100 mg per tablet. Thiamine is an essential B vitamin your body needs to turn food into energy and support your nervous system.
The tablet also contains several inactive ingredients—cellulose, croscarmellose sodium, hypromellose, magnesium stearate, silica, dicalcium phosphate, and stearic acid—which are fillers and binders that help form and stabilize the tablet.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Thiamine is effective for treating thiamine deficiency and Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome (WKS), a serious brain condition caused by severe thiamine lack. It's possibly effective for dysmenorrhea (painful periods).
For heart failure and mosquito repellent uses, the evidence suggests it's possibly ineffective. If you're taking this for a specific condition, talk with your pharmacist about whether the evidence supports your reason.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Thiamine is generally very safe when taken by mouth in normal amounts. Allergic reactions like dermatitis are rare when taken orally, though injected thiamine can rarely cause more serious allergic responses.
Thiamine is needed in pregnancy and while breastfeeding, but you should use supplement doses only as your doctor or midwife advises—don't exceed recommended amounts without guidance.
Meds to double-check
Minor interactions only
If you take trimethoprim (Proloprim), let your pharmacist know—it's a Minor interaction that can raise your thiamine blood levels. Check your other medications with the search tool on this page before starting, even though we have documented information only for trimethoprim.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with strong clinical evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Only minor medication interactions are documented, and safety information is well characterized.
This product is straightforward for replacing low thiamine or treating deficiency-related conditions. If you take trimethoprim (an antibiotic), mention this supplement to your pharmacist so they can monitor your thiamine levels.
For any other prescription medications, check them with the tool on this page first.
