I have been taking two 150 mg a day (one in the am, one in pm) for the past week and have noticed a strange smell when I urinate. I am taking Doctor's Best 'Best Benfotiamine' veggie caps. The smell is not bad, but last night I had a hard time sleeping because my body even smelled like a bottle of vitamins. It was just, well, weird. I thought that this form of thiamine was supposed to prevent this from happening..? Is this normal? Should I reduce down to 150mg a day? If gender, age & size matter: I am a female, I am about to turn 34, I am 5'3-5'4" tall and between 105-108 lbs.
*I attached an image of the ones I am taking, I hope it is allowed. |

I don't have any problem with Benfotiamine causing odor.
However, I do get a yeasty odor with regular Thiamine. Some of the amino acids change urine odor I've noticed. Are you taking a multivitamin? That can do it too. What else are you taking?

I saw something about veggies.I noticed a strange smell if I eat a lot of greens. It is close to a vinegar odor in urine.
