I am having problems finding a multivitamin which contain all of the ingredients in which you stated above. Do you know of any off-hand which would give me the benefits of all of the above?
The closest I found was a one a day womens multivitamin/multimineral supplement 50+. This one a day contains many ingredients but listed close to your recommendations were...Pyridoxine, Cyanocobalamin (not methyl-cobalamin) but no pregabalin. Is the cyanocobalamin the same as methlycobalamin? Where can I find pregabalin? Thank you.
Methylcobalamin in superior form.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Both are form of vit B12. Methylcobalamin in superior form. I generally prescribe Pregaba- M containing pregabalin and methylcobalamin.
Pregabalin is a prescription only medicines. So I guess your treating doctor will know about it.
Warm regards.
