HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin B-2 100 mg by Puritan's Pride

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 Sep 24, 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 (also called vitamin B-2) at 100 mg per tablet. Riboflavin is a B vitamin your body uses to convert food into energy and to support cell function.

The tablet also contains inactive ingredients — dicalcium phosphate, cellulose, silica, and magnesium stearate — which help form and preserve 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

This is a single-ingredient Riboflavin product and its label doesn't state a use — see Riboflavin's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • We looked at the product name, claims, and label statements and couldn't find a stated purpose to grade.

We don't hold effectiveness ratings for riboflavin in our data. If you're considering this supplement for a specific health concern, your doctor or pharmacist can help you understand what evidence exists and whether it's right for you.

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 very well tolerated, and any excess is removed through your urine. The most common side effects are dose-related nausea and bright yellow urine discoloration — both harmless.

In clinical trials, a small number of participants reported diarrhea or excess urination at higher doses, though these are rare. Riboflavin is considered likely safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding at recommended amounts, since your body actually needs it during these times.

If you're pregnant or nursing and thinking about taking a high-dose supplement like this, talk with your doctor or pharmacist first to make sure it's right for you.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Riboflavin

Meds to double-check

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.

If you take tetracycline antibiotics (such as doxycycline, minocycline, or tetracycline itself), check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this product — riboflavin may theoretically reduce how well these antibiotics work, though this hasn't been confirmed in people. No other interactions are documented for riboflavin in our data.

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-vitamin supplement that your body needs and generally tolerates well. The main thing to watch for is tetracycline antibiotics — if you take one, check with your doctor or pharmacist before adding this product.

Otherwise, mention it to your healthcare provider as part of your full supplement and medication picture, especially if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.

Vitamin B-2 100 mg by Puritan's Pride: Common Questions

Does Vitamin B-2 100 mg by Puritan's Pride interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Vitamin B-2 100 mg has a known interaction with 20 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Vitamin B-2 100 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 cause yellow urine?
Bright yellow urine is a known effect of riboflavin, especially at higher doses — it's harmless and happens because excess riboflavin is excreted through your urine. This is a normal sign that your body is processing the vitamin.
Is it safe to take while pregnant or breastfeeding?
Riboflavin is considered likely safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding at recommended amounts, since it's actually needed during these times. If you're thinking about taking a 100 mg supplement, talk with your doctor or pharmacist first — they can advise whether this dose is right for you.
What is riboflavin used for in the body?
Riboflavin (vitamin B-2) helps your body convert food into energy and supports normal cell function. It's a B vitamin your body needs but doesn't store, so you have to get it from food or supplements.
Can I take this with tetracycline antibiotics?
Riboflavin may theoretically reduce the effectiveness of tetracycline antibiotics like doxycycline, though this hasn't been proven in people. If you're on one of these antibiotics, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this supplement — they may suggest timing it differently or choosing an alternative.
What are the side effects?
Riboflavin is generally well tolerated. The most common side effects are dose-related nausea and bright yellow urine. Diarrhea and excess urination are rare and occurred in only a small number of people in clinical studies.
