HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin B-6 100 mg Timed Release 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.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
This product contains one active ingredient: vitamin B6, a B vitamin your body needs to support nerve function, metabolism, and red blood cell health. The capsule also contains inactive ingredients — rice concentrate, aloe vera gel, cellulose, and stearic acid — which help hold and deliver the dose.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Vitamin B6 is effective for sideroblastic anemia (a blood disorder where your bone marrow struggles to make normal red blood cells) and for treating vitamin B6 deficiency itself. It's also effective for pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy, a rare genetic seizure condition.
The evidence suggests it's likely effective for lowering homocysteine (an amino acid linked to heart disease risk) and possibly effective for pregnancy-related nausea and vomiting, though that use needs a doctor's oversight.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Vitamin B6 at doses under 100 mg daily is generally well tolerated. Common side effects are uncommon but can include headache, nausea, heartburn, and stomach pain.
The main safety concern is nerve damage (sensory neuropathy) with high doses over time — especially above 1,000 mg daily or cumulative doses of 1,000 grams or more, though it can happen even at lower doses. At the standard level in this product (100 mg), nerve injury from supplementation alone is unlikely, but be aware if you're adding other sources.
In pregnancy, the safety picture is mixed: vitamin B6 is likely safe at normal amounts and is often used for morning sickness under medical guidance, but one rating flags it as possibly unsafe — talk to your doctor before using it in pregnancy.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Check your medications if you take seizure drugs (phenytoin or phenobarbital), blood pressure medications, amiodarone, or levodopa. High-dose vitamin B6 may reduce how well seizure and blood pressure drugs work, worsen sun sensitivity from amiodarone, or interfere with levodopa — unless you're also on carbidopa.
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 supplement works well for correcting actual B6 deficiency and certain blood or seizure disorders. If you take seizure medications, blood pressure drugs, amiodarone, or levodopa without carbidopa, check your specific medications with our tool first.
Otherwise, mention it to your pharmacist at your next visit, especially if you're pregnant or taking anything regularly.

For each ingredient in Vitamin B-6 100 mg Timed Release with known interactions, here are the types of medications it can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Vitamin B6
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
