A catamnestic study of 50 patients with Wernicke's disease showed that nearly all patients retained residual symptoms and that the prognosis as to life expectancy and social functioning was poor, even after early institution of vitamin B-complex medication. It is advisable to give vitamin B-complex prophylactically in cases of chronic alcoholism combined with insufficient nutrition.
一项对50例韦尼克脑病患者的随访研究表明，几乎所有患者都残留有症状，即便早期就开始使用复合维生素B药物治疗，其预期寿命和社会功能的预后仍很差。对于慢性酒精中毒合并营养不足的情况，预防性给予复合维生素B是可取的。
