Matanx

I can nort afford $71.00 month for this RX. Any help with cost or substitutes??? ## There is no generic substitute available for Metanx. However, if you check out the website at Metanx.com, they do have a helpful resources link and list a mail order pharmacy that offers cheaper prices, so you may want to look into it. Learn more Metanx details here. How long have you been taking it? ## Have you used BrandDirectHealth.com which is owned by the manufacturer? It's less than $60/month.

I would like to know what I pay for 90 above tablets? ## I'm sorry, but this site does not manufacture, nor sell any products. The price for Metanx can vary, depending on where you live and which pharmacy you are purchasing it from. There is one person affiliated with the company that has posted on our site, to help some of our users and he provided a phone number for a discount program, so you might want to look into it, it's through Brand Direct Health and the number is 1-866-331-6440. Is there anything else I can help with?

My husband has been on metanx for 4-5yrs,it has helped with neuropathy in feet,has any one experienced severe pain and swelling in hands as a possible side effect of too much B-6,long term use of mentanx ? ## Hi Karen, Does your husband work on the computer frequently? This is a common cause for pain and swelling in the hands, so I thought I'd ask. Interestingly enough though, I just checked the side effects of Metanx and common side effects include: Drowsiness; feeling of swelling of the entire body; mild diarrhea; numbness or tingling. That said, it could in-fact be that Metanx is causing those complications. Has he sought out any treatment options or decreased his use of the medication?

I was taken matanx an it became to expensive so my doc prescribed me vitacirc b an that's only a few dollars different, so I'm in a search for something new since vitacirc b is not available anymore. I have the ingredient which are L- methylfolte calcium ( asMetafolina) 3 mg Pyridoxal 5-phosphate 35mg Methyl cobalamin 2mg If anyone can help please send me info ## Hello, Joyce! How are you? Many of these ones with the higher amounts of B vitamins in them require a doctor's prescription, so you can't just grab them off the shelf. Have you tried asking your pharmacist? They should know what else is available. I'll also do some research and post back, when I have information for you.

I have had peripheral neuropathy for almost 20 years. I read about Matanx, and would like to know the experiences of anyone who has tried it. THANKS! ## I took Metanx (2 pills a day) for a little over a month for neuropathy in my feet. It wasn't doing any good so my doctor took me off of it. After I started taking the Metanx, my neuropathy got a lot worse and pain started in one of my feet. I don't know if Metanx caused my feet to get worse, but in some posts on a similar website, some people said they thought the this medicine caused their neuropathy to become worse, too. I hope someone will have an answer for this. ## I am using the generic METANX ( NEURPATH-B) as March ,2011. this purple tablet is working Awesome for me I just came from Sam Pharmacy where I was told they no l...

I recently went & had a EMG & EEG. My Dr. said I had some nerve damage in my legs? My legs jump & twitch on their own? My Dr. said this matanx is a vitamin? Any feedback would be appreciated. ## Metanx contains the active ingredients: L-methylfolate (Metafolin): 2.8 mg Pyridoxal 5'-phosphate: 25 mg Methylcobalamin: 2 mg These B-Vitamins are often given to try to help treat or prevent nerve damage, however, the only way they will help is if that damage was caused by a deficiency in these nutrients. If it was due to an injury, then they will probably not do much. Read more: Are there any comments or questions?
