HelloPharmacist Scorecard of B6 100 mg by tnvitamins

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 12, 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: vitamin B6 (100 mg per tablet). The remaining ingredients—calcium carbonate, cellulose, croscarmellose, stearic acid, vegetable magnesium stearate, and silica—are inactive fillers and binders that give the tablet its form.

Does it work?

Strong evidence
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

This product doesn't appear to be marketed for a specific use, so we graded Vitamin B6's overall clinical evidence instead.

Strong

Strong clinical evidence supports Vitamin B6 for:

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.
  • Since the label doesn't commit to one use, we graded the ingredient's overall clinical evidence instead.
  • On file: Sideroblastic anemia — rated "Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Vitamin B6 deficiency — rated "Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy — rated "Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Hyperhomocysteinemia — rated "Likely Effective" (Natural Medicines).
  • On file: Antipsychotic-induced hyperprolactinemia — rated "Possibly Effective" (Natural Medicines).

Vitamin B6 is effective for treating sideroblastic anemia (a type of blood disorder) and B6 deficiency itself. It's also effective for pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy, a rare genetic condition.

The evidence is likely strong that B6 helps with hyperhomocysteinemia (elevated homocysteine in the blood), and it's possibly effective for pregnancy-related nausea and vomiting—though if you're pregnant, this should only be used under a doctor's guidance.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin B6

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.

Vitamin B6 at 100 mg daily is well tolerated in most people. Common side effects at higher doses include headache, nausea, heartburn, abdominal pain, loss of appetite, allergic reactions, and drowsiness.

The main caution: at very high doses (over 1,000 mg daily or with very large cumulative intake), B6 can damage nerves in your hands and feet (sensory neuropathy), though this can occasionally happen at lower doses too. Normal dietary amounts and standard supplement doses are considered safe, but avoid high-dose supplements unless a doctor recommends them.

If you're pregnant, B6 is likely safe at recommended levels for morning sickness, but only use it under medical supervision. During breastfeeding, normal amounts are considered likely safe.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin B6

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 — Vitamin B6.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: Parkinson's medications.
  • For scale: 210 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.

Check with your pharmacist if you take seizure medications (phenytoin or phenobarbital), blood pressure drugs, amiodarone (a heart rhythm medication), or levodopa without carbidopa. These are the drug types where vitamin B6 may change how they work.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with strong clinical evidence behind its ingredients' uses. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

This B6 supplement works well if you have a B6 deficiency or certain specific conditions like sideroblastic anemia. If you take blood pressure medication, a seizure drug, levodopa alone, amiodarone, or other prescriptions, check your medications on this page before you start.

At 100 mg daily, you're at a lower dose where problems are less likely, but it's still worth a conversation with your pharmacist.

Each ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects

Vitamin B65 drug types · 210 drugs

Amiodarone (Cordarone)

Theoretically, vitamin B6 might increase the photosensitivity caused by amiodarone.
Despite initial case reports suggesting that pyridoxine may have a protective effect against amiodarone-induced photosensitivity, preliminary clinical research suggests that pyridoxine may actually exacerbate this adverse effect.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Antihypertensive Drugs

Theoretically, vitamin B6 may have additive effects when used with antihypertensive drugs.
Research in hypertensive rats shows that vitamin B6 can decrease systolic blood pressure. Similarly, clinical research in patients with hypertension shows that taking high doses of vitamin B6 may reduce systolic and diastolic blood pressure, possibly by reducing plasma levels of epinephrine and norepinephrine.

Likelihood Possible Evidence B
Phenobarbital (Luminal)

High doses of vitamin B6 may reduce the levels and clinical effects of phenobarbital.
Preliminary clinical evidence suggests that vitamin B6 200 mg daily can reduce plasma levels of phenobarbital, possibly by increasing metabolism. It is not known whether lower doses have any effect. Advise people taking phenobarbital to avoid high doses of vitamin B6.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Phenytoin (Dilantin)

High doses of vitamin B6 may reduce the levels and clinical effects of phenytoin.
Preliminary clinical evidence suggests that vitamin B6 200 mg daily can reduce plasma levels of phenytoin, possibly by increasing metabolism. It is not known whether lower doses have any effect. Advise people taking phenytoin to avoid high doses of vitamin B6.

Likelihood Possible Evidence D
Levodopa

Vitamin B6 may increase the metabolism of levodopa when taken alone, but not when taken in conjunction with carbidopa.
Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) enhances the metabolism of levodopa, reducing its clinical effects. However, this interaction does not occur when carbidopa is used concurrently with levodopa (Sinemet). Therefore, it is not likely to be a problem in most people.

B6 100 mg by tnvitamins: Common Questions

Does B6 100 mg by tnvitamins interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, B6 100 mg has a known interaction with 210 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
B6 100 mg contains a single active ingredient, and that one ingredient can interact with many different medications on its own. We check it against each medication and show the mechanism responsible.
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 help with my B6 deficiency?
Yes—vitamin B6 is effective for treating B6 deficiency. If you've been diagnosed with one, this 100 mg tablet is appropriate, but your doctor or pharmacist should confirm the right dose for you.
Can I take this for morning sickness during pregnancy?
Vitamin B6 is possibly effective for pregnancy-related nausea, and it's considered likely safe at recommended levels. However, any use during pregnancy should only happen under your doctor's guidance—don't start it on your own.
What are the side effects I should watch for?
Most common side effects at normal doses are mild: headache, nausea, heartburn, or stomach upset. At very high doses over time, B6 can damage nerves in your hands and feet. At 100 mg daily, serious side effects are unlikely, but they can happen at lower doses too—contact your doctor if you develop tingling or numbness.
Is it safe to take long-term?
Vitamin B6 at 100 mg daily is generally well tolerated, but be aware that very high doses or long-term high-dose use can damage nerves. Stick to the recommended dose on the label and tell your doctor if you're taking supplements alongside prescriptions.
Can I take this while breastfeeding?
Yes—normal amounts of vitamin B6 are considered likely safe during breastfeeding. If you're taking a supplement, stick to standard doses and mention it to your doctor or lactation consultant.
Does this have fillers in it?
Yes—besides the vitamin B6, the tablet contains calcium carbonate, cellulose, croscarmellose, stearic acid, vegetable magnesium stearate, and silica. These are standard binding and filler ingredients that help form the tablet.
