Introduction
Mecobalamin tablets are generally used to treat peripheral neuropathy, megaloblastic anemia, diabetic peripheral neuropathy, trigeminal neuralgia, optic neuritis, and other diseases. In peripheral neuropathy, mecobalamin can participate in the synthesis of nucleic acids and proteins in nervous tissues, promote regeneration of nerve fibers, improve nerve conduction disorders, and alleviate symptoms caused by peripheral nerve damage, such as limb numbness, pain, and abnormal sensations.

  Mecobalamin tablets are generally used to treat peripheral neuropathy, megaloblastic anemia, diabetic peripheral neuropathy, trigeminal neuralgia, optic neuritis, and other diseases. The specific applications are as follows:

  1. Peripheral Neuropathy: Mecobalamin can participate in the synthesis of nucleic acids and proteins in nervous tissues, promote nerve fiber regeneration, improve nerve conduction disorders, and alleviate symptoms caused by peripheral nerve damage, such as limb numbness, pain, and abnormal sensations.

  2. Megaloblastic Anemia: As the active form of vitamin B12, it can promote folate utilization and nucleic acid metabolism, aid in red blood cell maturation, and alleviate anemia symptoms caused by vitamin B12 deficiency, such as pallor, fatigue, and dizziness.

  3. Diabetic Peripheral Neuropathy: It can regulate nerve metabolism in diabetic patients, repair peripheral nerves damaged by high blood sugar, reduce numbness, tingling, and burning sensations in the extremities, and delay the progression of nerve damage.

  4. Trigeminal Neuralgia: It can nourish the trigeminal nerve, promote the repair of nerve myelin sheaths, reduce nerve excitability, alleviate severe pain in areas innervated by the trigeminal nerve, and reduce the frequency of pain episodes.

  5. Optic Neuritis: It can nourish the optic nerve, promote the metabolism and repair of optic nerve cells, improve symptoms of vision loss and blurred vision caused by optic nerve inflammation, and assist in protecting optic nerve function.

  The dosage and duration of Mecobalamin tablets should be determined according to medical advice; patients should not alter the treatment regimen on their own. If discomfort such as headache or diarrhea occurs during treatment, it is important to promptly inform the doctor, who will assess whether to continue the medication or adjust the dosage.
