How it works
Methylcobalamin (B12) is required for myelin synthesis and axonal regeneration. B12 deficiency causes progressive demyelination and axonal degeneration underlying peripheral neuropathic pain.
Most beneficial in confirmed or suspected deficiency (common in vegans, elderly, and metformin users). Methylcobalamin or hydroxocobalamin forms are preferred. Serum B12 may appear normal despite functional deficiency — methylmalonic acid is a more sensitive marker.
