Summary
This study looked at whether taking daily vitamin B complex can help prevent or reduce nerve pain (peripheral neuropathy) caused by the chemotherapy drug paclitaxel in women with ovarian cancer. 146 adult women took part. Half took vitamin B pills every day for 6 months while getting weekly chemo, and the other half did not. Researchers tracked their nerve pain symptoms to compare the two groups.
