Has anyone been prescribed EB-N5?

Hello, @tcgunn

I'm glad to hear that EB-N5 appears to be working for you. I believe it is for me, too, although I've been fighting a sepsis infection for the past nine months. Sepsis has made my balance much worse, and my sepsis symptoms seem to be waning, it has been impossible for me to report with any authority on the effectiveness of EB-N5 in halting or at least slowing any worsening of my PN balance difficulties. That said, I've no reason to think that EB-N5 has done me any harm; therefore, I'm continuing to take it.

All the very best to you!

What is EB-N5? AND DOES IT REALLY HELP YOUR NEUROPATHY?

@geepee do you the cause of your neuropathy and what symptoms do you have that go better?

Hi Ray. Did these work for you? I have small fiber neuropathy. No pain really just numbness. I have just started on these.

Did it help with the numbness. I take Tumeric for the pain and that went away almost immediately.

I have had many problems with vitamin blends because of dosing amounts, either not enough to help or too much that they cause toxicity. And this one is expensive! Watch out for the B6.

The ingredients in EB-N5 are:

• L-Methylfolate Calcium 3mg (this is good for diabetic neuropathy only)

• Methylcobalamin 2mg (this is 2,000mcg of B12, a dose normally given for B12 deficiency. I would have my B12 levels tested before taking this much.)

• Pyridoxal 5-Phosphate 35mg (I would have my B6 levels tested before taking this high amount. 35mg is enough to cause B12 toxicity, which makes neuropathy worse and even causes it. If you do not have a deficiency, this is too much.)

• Alpha Lipoic Acid 300mg (This should be R-ALA, which is better assimilated. ALA contains a synthetic form not absorbed by the body.)

• Cholecalciferol 2500IU (This is a high amount of D3, but if you have a deficiency, you will need a higher dose. Have your D3 levels tested. Taking too much D3 when it is not required can cause bone and kidney issues.)

Hi all, I have taking EB-N6 for two years now and it has helped. The pain has been manageable but has not gone away. Basically I have improvements and would recommend people to try it. Cost $159 for there months I think it is worth it.

It’s June 2025 and my Podiatrist recommended EBM EB-N6 vitamins.
I’ll try anything once even through they are expensive. Surprisingly, they have 99 percent alleviated my burning and itching in my feet. Since each person is different, I recommend that you try this product.

@ray666 Ray - it has been two years (hard to believe!) since you posted this question. Since we have very similar symptoms, could you please provide, in your opinion, the pros and cons of this product. If you're no longer taking it, why? Thanks - Ed

Hi, Ed,

Geez, has it reallybeen TWO years? How flies when you're having fun –– or at least doing everything we can to have fun. 🙂 Regarding EB-N5, I've been asked many times if it was doing to me any good (or any harm) –– asked by the neurologist who suggested I give EB-N5 a try. My answer has always been the same: I can't be sure, either way (good, or harm). All I can really say is my PN (chronic idiopathic large-fibre axonal polyneuropathy –– a mouthful!) has, in all these years, not grown measurably worse. Can I attribute that to EB-N5? I can't say, not for sure.

But now that same neurologist (whom I really like and trust) has asked me to switch to EB-M8, a somewhat different "medicinal food." I've been taking EB-M8 for only a little over a week, so the jury's still out on that one; "still out"? actually, they're still leaving the courtroom. I'll keep everyone posted, though, as I continue to monitor my one Big Bad PN Symptom (poor balance).

My super best to you, Ed, and to everyone!
