Thioctic acid, also known as alpha-lipoic acid, is an antioxidant used in the treatment of diabetic neuropathy and as a dietary supplement to support overall health.
It helps reduce oxidative stress and improve nerve function, being administered orally or intravenously, depending on the indication. It is also used to support energy metabolism and liver health.
Side effects may include nausea, dizziness, headaches, or allergic reactions. In rare cases, it may cause hypoglycemia, especially in diabetic patients taking blood sugar-lowering medications.
Patients using thioctic acid should inform their doctor about all medications and supplements they are taking to avoid drug interactions.
