HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin B-2 100 mg by Solaray

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

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 B-2) at 100 mg per capsule. Riboflavin is a B vitamin your body uses for energy production and cell function.

The capsule also holds inactive ingredients — rice concentrate, cellulose, and silica — which are fillers and binders.

Does it work?

No specific claim
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
General wellness

This Riboflavin product is marketed for general wellness, not a specific health condition, so there's no single claim to grade — see Riboflavin's own graded uses on its monograph.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets general wellness (“Energy Support”), not a specific health condition, so there is no single claim to grade against clinical-evidence data.

We don't have effectiveness data on file for riboflavin at this dose or for any particular health claim. If you're considering this supplement for a specific reason, your pharmacist can point you toward what the research actually shows.

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. Your body excretes excess riboflavin in your urine, so it doesn't build up.

At this 100 mg dose, you may notice bright yellow urine — that's the riboflavin and is harmless. A small number of people report dose-related nausea, and rarely, diarrhea.

Riboflavin is needed during pregnancy and breastfeeding and is considered safe at recommended amounts. Since this is a high-dose supplement (far above daily needs), talk with your doctor or midwife before using it if you're pregnant or nursing.

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 or minocycline), ask your pharmacist before taking this product — riboflavin may reduce how well they work. No other drug interactions are documented for the ingredient we checked.

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula marketed for general wellness rather than one specific gradeable purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Riboflavin is a well-tolerated B vitamin with minimal side effects. The main thing to watch is whether you take tetracycline antibiotics — if you do, check with your pharmacist before starting.

Otherwise, this is a straightforward supplement to use.
