Yes, you can try benfotiamine. What reactions did you have with B-complex and B-1? A Bcomplex has thiamine in it already.

Start with 150mg of benfotiamine only, until you see how you tolerate it. It is typically free of side effects for most people.

Benfotiamine is usually used in alcohol rehabilitation, and for those with genetic errors of thiamine enzymes, or high sugar/carb intake thru the diet. It does not cause the body odor that regular thiamine causes.
