Abstract Wernicke’s Encephalopathy is an acute neuro-psychiatric condition caused by an insufficient supply of thiamine (Vitamin B1) to the brain. If undiagnosed or inad-equately treated, it is likely to proceed to Korsakoff’s Syn-drome. Wernicke’s Encephalopathy can result from dietary deficiency alone and this form is usually successfully trea-ted, with little chance of Korsakoff’s Syndrome superven-ing. On the other hand, thiamine deficiency associated with alcohol misuse/dependence may require up to 1 gram of thiamine IV in the first 24 hours to be treated successfully. The reasons for this difference in treatment will be dis-cussed. Thiamine diphosphate acts as a co-factor for a number of thiamine-dependent enzymes. Thiamine deficien-c...
