Viboliv 500

Uses
Viboliv 500 (Metadoxine) is sometimes reffered to as pyridoxine pyrrolidonecarboxylate. It is a hepatoprotective agent which works by helping to prevent liver damage. Uses include the treatment of fatty liver disease and alcohol intoxication. In addition to this, it is also administered alongside other forms of treatment for managing alcohol withdrawal symptoms. When taken, it helps to metabolise alcohol so that it is released as urine, which helps to speed up the removal of alcohol from the blood.

By acting on acetylcholine and GABA, it may also have a positive effect on the psychological symptoms of alcoholism. Other benefits include functioning as an antioxidant and decreasing fibrosis in the liver. A medical study was conducted which showed that it increased the speed at which ethanol was eliminated from the blood in patients affected by acute ethanol intoxication. Other researchers have studied it as a potential ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) treatment.
