Niacinamide (Nvit-L), also called as nicotinamide (vitamin B3), is prescribed for the treatment of niacin deficiency disorders including pellagra. Niacinamide (Nvit-L) should not be used for treatment of hyperlipidemia.
3-((4-Amino-2-methyl-5-pyrimidinyl)methyl)-5-(2- hydroxyethyl)-4-methylthiazolium chloride.
Nutritional factor found in milk, eggs, malted barley, liver, kidney, heart, and leafy vegetables. The richest natural source is yeast. It occurs in the free form only in the retina of the eye, in whey, and in urine; its principal forms in tissues and cells are as flavin mononucleotide and flavin-adenine dinucleotide.
The 4-methanol form of vitamin B 6 which is converted to pyridoxal phosphate which is a coenzyme for synthesis of amino acids, neurotransmitters (serotonin, norepinephrine), sphingolipids, aminolevulinic acid. Although pyridoxine and Vitamin B 6 are still frequently used as synonyms, especially by medical researchers, this practice is erroneous and sometimes misleading (EE Snell; Ann NY Acad Sci, vol 585 pg 1, 1990).
Vitamin B1 (Nvit-L) deficiency
An indication is a term used for the list of condition or symptom or illness for which the medicine is prescribed or used by the patient. For example, acetaminophen or paracetamol is used for fever by the patient, or the doctor prescribes it for a headache or body pains. Now fever, headache and body pains are the indications of paracetamol. A patient should be aware of the indications of medications used for common conditions because they can be taken over the counter in the pharmacy meaning without prescription by the Physician.Vitamin B2 (Nvit-L) deficiency

Interactions for Vitamin B1 (Nvit-L) (Vitamin B1 (Nvit-L))
Loop Diuretics,
Oral Contraceptives, Stavudine, Tricyclic Antidepressants
Interactions for Vitamin B2 (Nvit-L) (Vitamin B2 (Nvit-L))
Alcohol - impairs the intestinal absorption of riboflavi
Antidepressants (tricyclics or phenothiazines) - requirements for riboflavin may be increased in patients receiving these medications
Probenecid - concurrent use decreases gastrointestinal absorption of riboflavin; requirements for riboflavin may be increased in patients receiving probenecid.
Interactions for Vitamin B6 (Nvit-L) (Vitamin B6 (Nvit-L))
Amiodarone: Concomitant use of Vitamin B6 (Nvit-L) and amiodarone may enhance amiodarone-induced photosensitivity reactions. Doses of Vitamin B6 (Nvit-L) greater than 5-10 milligrams/day should be avoided by those taking amiodarone Carbamazepine: Chronic use of carbamazepine may result in a significant decrease in plasma pyridoxal 5-phosphate levels Cycloserine: Cycloserine may react with pyridoxal 5-phosphate to form a metabolically inactive oxime, which may result in a functional Vitamin B6 (Nvit-L) deficiency Ethionamide: The use of ethionamide may increase Vitamin B6 (Nvit-L) requirements Fosphenytoin: High doses of Vitamin B6 (Nvit-L) may lower plasma levels of phenytoin. Fosphenytoin is a prodrug of phenytoin Hydralazine: The use of hydralazine may increase Vitamin B6 (Nvit-L) requirements Isoniazid: (isonicotinic acid, INH). Isoniazid reacts with pyridoxal 5-phosphate to form a metabolically inactive hydrazone, which may result in functional Vitamin B6 (Nvit-L) deficiency Levodopa: Concomitant use of levodopa and Vitamin B6 (Nvit-L) in doses of 5 milligrams or more daily may reverse the therapeutic effects of levodopa. Vitamin B6 (Nvit-L) does not reverse the therapeutic effects of levodopa if levodopa is taken concurrently with the levodopa decarboxylase inhibitor carbidopa. Levodopa is typically administered as a combination product with carbidopa
Oral contraceptives: The use of oral contraceptives may increase Vitamin B6 (Nvit-L) requirements. This was more the case with the older oral contraceptive agents with high-dose estrogen/progestin. It appears to be less the case with the newer low-dose estrogen/progestin products Penicillamine: Penicillamine may react with pyridoxal 5-phosphate to form a metabolically inactive thiazolidine, which may result in a functional Vitamin B6 (Nvit-L) deficiency Phenelzine: Phenelzine may react with pyridoxal 5-phosphate to yield a metabolically inactive hydrazone compound Phenobarbital: High doses of Vitamin B6 (Nvit-L) may lower plasma levels of phenobarbital Phenytoin: High doses of Vitamin B6 (Nvit-L) may lower plasma levels of phenytoin Theophylline: Theophylline may react with pyridoxal 5-phosphate leading to low plasma levels of the coenzyme. This may increase the risk of theophylline-induced seizures Valproic acid: Chronic use of valproic acid may result in a significant decrease in plasma pyridoxal 5-phosphate levels.
