Vitamine B6 (pyridoxine hydrochloride) is a water soluble vitamin. Actually, vitamin B6 means three similar components: pyridoxine, pyridoxal and pyridoxamine, from which is mainly used the pyridoxine in the form of hydrochloride. Pyridoxine participates mainly in the metabolism of aminoacids, but also in the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats. It is also necessary for the formation of hemoglobin. Pyridoxin deficiency is rare in humans, because it is present in foods, however it may be caused by drugs, such as during treatment with isoniazid. Pyridoxine deficiency may cause sideroblastic anemia, dermatitis, chielosis, and neurological symptoms, such as peripheral neuritis and convulsions.
Vitamin B6 is indicated in:
- conditions that derive from pyridoxine deficiency;
- isoniazid – induced neuropathy;
- treatment of nausea or vomiting in the period of pregnancy;
- idiopathic sideroblastic anemia;
- hyperoxaluria type I;
- hydrazine toxicity;
- prophylaxis of vomiting by ether.
