Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics

Benzothiamine is a fat-soluble vitamin B1 derivative (thiamine). In the body, this substance is phosphorylated into thiamine diphosphate and thiamine triphosphate, which are biologically active coenzymes. The main part of benfotiamine is absorbed in the duodenum, the rest of it is in the small intestine.
Pyridoxine is processed into pyridoxal phosphate. This enzyme affects the non-oxidative metabolism of amino acids. It takes part in the production of physiologically active amines. It is mainly absorbed in the upper parts of the digestive tract during passive diffusion.
Both active substances are excreted mainly through the kidneys. The half-life of benfotiamine from the blood is 3.6 hours, the half-life of pyridoxine is 2-5 hours.
