HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin B1 100 mg by Nutricost

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.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: thiamine (also called vitamin B1), a B vitamin your body needs to turn food into energy and keep your nervous system working. Nutricost includes inactive ingredients — rice flour, gelatin, and stearic acid — which are the capsule and filler materials.

Does it work?

Strong evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Strong

Clinical evidence supports at least one of this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: B-vitamin supplementation and nutrient support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Thiamine deficiency, Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome (WKS), Beriberi, Nerve function support, Energy metabolism.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Thiamine is rated "Effective" for Thiamine deficiency (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Thiamine is rated "Effective" for Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome (WKS).

Thiamine is effective for treating thiamine deficiency and Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome, a serious neurological condition tied to severe B1 shortage. The evidence is also possibly effective for dysmenorrhea (menstrual cramps).

For mosquito repellent and heart failure, the evidence rates as possibly ineffective — meaning the data doesn't support these uses.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Thiamine

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Thiamine is generally very well tolerated when taken by mouth at normal doses. Rarely, it might cause skin irritation or allergic reactions.

Thiamine is needed in pregnancy and while breastfeeding, so supplements are safe at recommended doses under your provider's guidance — just follow their directions on how much to take.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Thiamine

Meds to double-check

Minor interactions only
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Minor only

Only Minor-severity interactions are documented for these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Thiamine.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Minor.
  • For scale: 3 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

If you take trimethoprim (Proloprim), an antibiotic, check with your pharmacist before starting — it's a minor interaction, but trimethoprim can raise your blood thiamine levels. For any other prescription medications, use the interaction checker on this page to be sure.

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.
