Introduction: Thiamine Hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt form of thiamine (vitamin B1), a vitamin essential for aerobic metabolism, cell growth, transmission of nerve impulses and acetylcholine synthesis. Vitamin B1 helps prevent various health problems including heart damage.Thiamine hydrochloride is used to prevent and treat thiamine deficiency states, which may occur as a result of inadequate nutrition or intestinal malabsorption. It is also used for the treatment of Wernicke-Korsakoff syndrome, beriberi and thiamine deficiency related to chronic alcoholism. Thiamine hydrochloride is used as a food additive to add brothy/meaty flavor to gravies or soups. It is used also as a food supplement and flavoring ingredient with a bitter taste. View more+

9.5 Natural Pollution Sources
Vitamin B1 is found in all plants and animals; however, most organisms contain only low concentrations(1,2). It is found intracellularly in microorganisms, in plants (although unevenly distributed), and in tissue of animals, with the highest amounts occurring in the heart, kidney, liver, and brain(1). In plants, vitamin B1 occurs predominantly as free thiamine and in animals it occurs almost entirely in phophorylated forms, mainly thiamine pyrophosphate(2). It is biosynthesized by microorganisms and plants. Dietary sources include whole grains, meat products, vegetables, milk, legumes and fruit. Vitamin B1 is also present in rice husks and yeast(3).
9.6 Food Survey Values
Dietary Sources of Vitamin B1(1). [Table#840]|Whole grain cereals, legumes such as beans and lentils, nuts, lean pork and yeast are rich sources of vitamin B1(1). [Table#841]
9.7 Human Exposure
NIOSH (NOES Survey 1981-1983) has statistically estimated that 18,939 workers (9.502 of these were female) were potentially exposed to vitamin B1 in the US(1).
9.8 Livertox Summary
Vitamin B refers to several water soluble vitamins often found together in foods, all of which are necessary for normal growth and metabolism, but none of which are synthesized in adequate amounts by humans. The common forms of vitamin B include vitamin B1 (thiamine), B2 (riboflavin), B3 (niacin), B6 (pyridoxine) and B12 (cyanocobalamin). Except for niacin (when given in high doses), there is no evidence that the other B vitamins, in physiologic or even super-physiologic high doses cause liver injury or jaundice. The major forms of vitamin B and selected other water soluble vitamins (biotin, pantothenic acid, choline) are discussed briefly in this record.

9.10 Therapeutic Uses
Thiamine is used to prevent and to treat thiamine deficiency syndromes including beriberi, Wernicke's encephalopathy syndrome, delirium, and peripheral neuritis associated with pellagra or neuritis of pregnancy (if associated with severe vomiting).|Although thiamine has not been shown by well-controlled trials to have any therapeutic value, the drug has been used for the management of poor appetite, ulcerative colitis, chronic diarrhea, other GI disorders, and the cerebellar syndrome. Thiamine has also been used orally as an insect repellent, but there is a lack of adequate evidence to establish the efficacy of thiamine for this use.|Low plasma thiamine concentrations have been found in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus. In a small placebo-controlled study, benfotiamine /a related vitamin B1 substance/ 100 mg given four times daily by mouth significantly improved neuropathic pain in patients with diabetic polyneuropathy. /Benfotiamine/|/This study assessed/ the effect of thiamine repletion on thiamine status, functional capacity, and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) in patients with moderate to severe congestive heart failure (CHF) who had received furosemide in doses of 80 mg/d or more for at least 3 months. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Thirty patients were randomized to 1 week of double-blind inpatient therapy with either iv thiamine 200 mg/d or placebo (n = 15 each). All previous drugs were continued. Following discharge, all 30 patients received oral thiamine 200 mg/d as outpatients for 6 weeks. Thiamine status was determined by the erythrocyte thiamine-pyrophosphate effect (TPPE). LVEF was determined by echocardiography. RESULTS: TPPE, diuresis, and LVEF were unchanged with iv placebo. After iv thiamine, TPPE decreased (11.7% +/- 6.5% to 5.4% +/- 3.2%; P < 0.01). LVEF increased (0.28 +/- 0.11 to 0.32 +/- 0.09; P < 0.05), as did diuresis (1,731 +/- 800 mL/d to 2,389 +/- 752 mL/d; P < 0.02), and sodium excretion (84 +/- 52 mEq/d to 116 +/- 83 mEq/d, P < 0.05). In the 27 patients completing the full 7-week intervention, LVEF rose by 22% (0.27 +/- 0.10 to 0.33 +/- 0.11, P < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Thiamine repletion can improve left ventricular function and biochemical evidence of thiamine deficiency in some patients with moderate-to-severe CHF who are receiving longterm furosemide therapy.|For more Therapeutic Uses (Complete) data for Vitamin B1 (11 total), please visit the HSDB record page.
9.11 Drug Warnings
Serious hypersensitivity/anaphylactic reactions can occur, especially after repeated administration. Deaths have resulted from IV or IM administration of thiamine.|Anaphylaxis as an adverse systemic reaction to thiamine (vitamin B1) has been described in the literature since 1938. Although its precise mechanism is still uncertain, the reaction appears to involve immediate type hypersensitivity and to be exclusively related to parenteral administration...|Anaphylaxis. There have been occasional reports of serious and even fatal responses to the parenteral administration of thiamin. The clinical characteristics have strongly suggested an anaphylactic reaction. Symptoms associated with thiamin-induced anaphylaxis include anxiety, pruritus, respiratory distress, nausea, abdominal pain, and shock, sometimes progressing to death.|Adverse reactions with thiamine are rare, but hypersensitivity reactions have occurred, mainly after parenteral doses. These reactions have ranged in severity from very mild to, very rarely, fatal anaphylactic shock ... The UK Committee on Safety of Medicines had received, between 1970 and July, 1988, 90 reports of adverse reactions associated with the use of an injection containing high doses of vitamins B and C. The most frequent reactions were anaphylaxis (41 cases, including 2 fatalities), dyspnea or bronchospasm (13 cases), and rash or flushing (22 cases); 78 of the reactions occurred during, or shortly after, intravenous injection and the other 12 after intramuscular injectdion. They recommended that parenteral treatment be used only when essential, and that, when given, facilities for treating anaphylaxis should be available. They also recommended that, when the intravenous route was used, the injection be given slowly (over 10 minutes). Various authors have noted that parenteral treatment is essential for the prophylaxis and treatment of Wernicke's encephalopathy. However, further reports of anaphylaxis to parenteral thiamine have since been described, including one with a fatal outcome.|For more Drug Warnings (Complete) data for Vitamin B1 (15 total), please visit the HSDB record page.
9.12 Absorption
Absorption of thiamin occurs mainly in the jejunum. At low concentrations of thiamin, absorption occurs by an active transport system that involves phosphyrylation; at higher concentrations, absorption occurs by passive diffusion. Only a small percentage of a high dose of thiamin is absorbed, and elevated serum values result in active urinary excretion of the vitamin.|Thiamin is transported in blood in both erythrocytes and plasma and is excreted in the urine.|Thiamine is absorbed from the small intestine and is phosphorylated in the intestinal mucosa.|The B vitamins are readily absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, except in malabsorption syndromes. Thiamine is absorbed mainly in the duodenum.|For more Absorption, Distribution and Excretion (Complete) data for Vitamin B1 (8 total), please visit the HSDB record page.

Several urinary metabolites of thiamine have been identified in humans. Little or no unchanged thiamine is excreted in urine following administration of physiologic doses; however, following administration of larger doses, both unchanged thiamine and metabolites are excreted after tissue stores become saturated.
9.14 Biological Half Life
The biological half-life of the vitamin is in the range of 9-18 days.|With higher pharmacological levels, namely repetitive 250-mg amounts taken orally and 500 mg given intramuscularly, nearly 1 week was required for steady state plasma concentrations to be reached; a mean elimination half-life of 1.8 days was estimated.|Total thiamin content of the adult human has been estimated to be approximately 30 mg, and the biological half-life of the vitamin is probably in the range of 9 to 18 days.

The picrolonate crystallises from H2O and is dimorphic, m 164-165o and 228-229o(dec). [Todd & Bergel J Chem Soc 364, 367 1937, J Am Chem Soc 58 1063, 1504 1936, 59 526 1937, Beilstein 27 IV 1766.]
9.34 Description
In 1912, Cashmir Funk isolated thiamine from rice husks and coined the term ‘vitamine’ because it was required for life (‘vita’) and because thiamine contained nitrogen (‘amine’). Thiamine, formerly known as B1, is water soluble. Thiamine is a vital cofactor for enzymes and coenzymes of glycolysis, the Kreb’s cycle, the pentose phosphate pathway. Thiamine is also involved in the biosynthesis of the neurotransmitters acetylcholine and gamma-aminobutyric acid and in nerve propagation.
9.35 Chemical Properties
Vitamin B1 has an odor slightly reminiscent of thiazole and a bitter taste. When exposed to air, the vitamin rapidly absorbs about 4% of water.
9.36 Occurrence
Rice husks are reportedly the principal source of vitamin B1; in variable amounts it is a constituent of yeast, milk, green leaves, roots and tubers; it is also present in high concentration in seeds, and in lesser amount in different animal organs and muscles.
9.37 Preparation
By linking the preformed thiazole and pyrimidine ring system.
9.38 General Description
Thiamine is a water-soluble vitamin of the B complex whose phosphate derivatives are involved in many cellular processes required for overall human health. Thiamine deficiency, often the result of impaired nutritional status associated with chronic diseases from alcoholism to HIV-AIDS, is monitored in patient whole blood samples by HPLC.
9.39 Usage
Thiamine hydrochloride plays an important role as a nutrient for carbohydrate metabolism and in nerve function. It finds application as a food-additive to add a brothy/meaty flavor to gravies or soups. It is involved in the preparation of 3-(4-amino-2-methyl-pyrimidin-5-ylmethyl)-5-(2-hydroxy-ethyl)-4-methyl-thiazolium chloride. In addition, it finds use in amino acid synthesis in cultured cells, which is present in many classical and serum-free formulations.
