Thioctic acid supplementation; treatment of Leigh syndrome and inner ear hearing loss
Thioctic acid can help facilitate energy metabolism during intense physical labor, aiding in the maintenance of bodily functions. It is also used in the treatment of subacute necrotizing encephalomyelitis, such as Leigh syndrome, and is applicable for toxic inner ear hearing loss caused by drugs like streptomycin or kanamycin, as well as occupational noise-induced inner ear hearing loss. However, if no effect is observed after approximately one month of use, it is advisable not to continue treatment. Thus, thioctic acid is effectively used in the treatment of certain neurological and auditory disorders.
The usual adult dose is 10~25mg of thioctic acid administered by intravenous injection once daily. The dose may be adjusted according to age and symptoms.

Skin rashes, headaches, dizziness, and palpitations may also occur. For the elderly, since bodily functions may be weakened, special care should be taken, such as reducing the dosage.
