the barbiturate is attenuated and indeed this property has been used in my oral surgery practice to reverse barbiturate general anesthesia in 5 12 minutes rather than 70 90 minutes by topical application over the wisdom tooth area at the beginning of the case then the barbiturate reversal that occurs quickly at the end of the general anesthetic enhances patient safety and allows quick discharge from the office bleeding from b6 during oral surgery routinely stops at minute 3 facial hematoma resolution has occurred in 24 48 hours postoperatively consequently the use of b6 in a molecular transport medium may abort a cns stroke promote rapid healing from the stroke and perhaps be invaluable to rehabulate the stroke victim this action of transported b6 was proposed to national institute of health a minor stroke was indeed reversed in a 45 year old male this patient sustained a heart attack that resulted in an embolus to his left optic nerve known as ischemic optic neuropathy a condition that has no known cure and results in blindness 5 the patient was medically seen and documented to be blind in his left eye and the condition had been this way for 2 weeks when the patient sought out the b5 b6 transport cream after three days of topical usage over and around the affected eye the patient 39 s eyesight began to return during this time b5 b6 usage the patient 39 s affected eye would experience flashes of color light prior to return of vision the vision returning in small increments whenever the patient took a shower after placing the cream periorbital he would experience even more intense light flashes and quicker vision improvement this later observation then led to the need to add water droplets if the b6.
