HelloPharmacist Scorecard of B-2 100 mg by Vitamin World

Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 16, 2026

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This product contains one active ingredient: riboflavin (vitamin B2) at 100 mg per tablet. Riboflavin is a B vitamin that your body uses to turn food into energy and support cell health.

The tablet also contains several inactive ingredients — dicalcium phosphate, vegetable cellulose, croscarmellose, vegetable magnesium stearate, silica, and a vegetable cellulose coating — which help form and protect the tablet.

Does it work?

Couldn't assess
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Not assessable

We hold no graded evidence for this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: energy metabolism, vision and skin health.
  • Our graded evidence for these ingredients doesn't cover that particular purpose.

The product facts we hold do not include effectiveness evidence for riboflavin. If you're considering B-2 for a specific reason, your doctor or pharmacist can tell you what the research shows for that use.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Riboflavin

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

Riboflavin is generally well tolerated at normal doses. The most common side effects are dose-related nausea and bright yellow discoloration of your urine — both harmless and temporary.

A small number of people report diarrhea or increased urination at higher doses, but these are rare. Riboflavin is needed during pregnancy and breastfeeding and is generally safe at recommended amounts; if you're taking a higher-dose supplement, check with your doctor or pharmacist first.

Excess riboflavin is removed through your urine, so your body doesn't store it.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Riboflavin

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Riboflavin.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • For scale: 20 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Double-check tetracycline antibiotics before taking this product — riboflavin may reduce their strength. Your doctor or pharmacist can advise on timing or whether an alternative works better for you.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no assessable stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This is a straightforward B-2 supplement for anyone looking to boost their riboflavin intake. If you take tetracycline antibiotics, confirm with your doctor or pharmacist before starting it — timing matters.

Otherwise, chat with your own healthcare provider about whether this dose and supplement make sense for you.

Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Will this turn my urine yellow?
Yes, it may. At this 100 mg dose, bright yellow urine is a known side effect of riboflavin. It's harmless and temporary — just a sign your body is getting more of this vitamin than it needs, which it removes through urine.

Could this cause nausea?
Dose-related nausea is the most common side effect of riboflavin, especially at higher doses. At 100 mg, some people may experience mild nausea, but it's usually temporary.
Is riboflavin safe overall?
Yes, riboflavin is considered very safe. Your body uses what it needs and gets rid of the rest through urine, so excess doesn't build up.
