Benfomet Forte Tablet is a nutritional supplement that nourishes the body with essential vitamins and minerals. It treats nutritional deficiency and contains Folic acid, Methylcobalamin (Vitamin B12), Alpha-lipoic acid, Benfotiamine, Chromium, Inositol, and Selenium. It is indicated to treat nerve pain and damage in peripheral neuropathy, diabetic neuropathy (nerve damage due to high blood sugar levels), and alcoholic neuropathy. It relieves symptoms like numbness, tingling, burning, and needle-like sensations in the hands and feet. It works as an antioxidant and prevents cell damage due to free radicals. It is also used in conditions like panic disorders, weight loss, and high cholesterol levels.

• Folic acid helps form red blood cells and prevents DNA changes that may lead to cancer. It also helps in repairing nerve injury and also improves diabetic neuropathy symptoms. 
• Methylcobalamin treats hyperhomocysteinemia (high levels of homocysteine in the blood) and regulates body functions, such as cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis. It helps in the rejuvenation and protection of damaged nerve cells by producing a substance called myelin. 
• Alpha-lipoic acid is an antioxidant that prevents cell damage and also decreases pain and numbness in diabetic neuropathy.
• Benfotiamine, a synthetic form of Vitamin B1 or Thiamine, helps deliver essential nutrients to the nerves and treats numbness, tingling, burning, and needle-like sensations in the hands and feet.
• Inositol improves blood circulation to the legs, toes, and fingers, thereby relieving pain.
• Chromium helps control blood sugar levels in diabetes and thus prevents nerve damage due to increased blood sugar.
• Selenium is a mineral that prevents various diseases of the heart and blood vessels like stroke, complications from statin drugs, and abnormal cholesterol levels.
