Another pwp has tried it and had success. Others have tried and didn't help. There are just individual case reports, no formal trials to determine if it works or if this is just placebo effect (we pwp REALLY want a treatment to work, so it sometimes does... for awhile). This person posted here:

I started w 2gm a day, adding it to my amino acid supplements I was taking 3 times a day. On vacation I could only manage it twice a day still maintaining my 2gms ,not noticing any symptom change. I credited the B1 at the time but have since went to one dose a day and only taking 1 gm of B1(another busy vacation). I thinked it helped w lowering my dosage ,but now I’m not as sure? I had no side effects from either dose other than what’s mentioned here. Hope that helps.
