Molecular Formula: C8H13NaO2S2
Molecular Weight: 228.30739

Description:
Sodium (R)-alpha-lipoate, a robust antioxidant, is efficaciously exploited to rectify diabetic neuropathy. By enhancing glucose metabolism and curtailing oxidative stress, sodium (R)-alpha-lipoate averts nerve damage. Additionally, research illustrates its prospective role in remedying Alzheimer's disease and multiple sclerosis.
