HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin B2 100 mg by BIOVEA

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 B2), also called vitamin B2. Riboflavin is a B vitamin your body uses to turn food into energy and to keep your eyes, nerves, and skin healthy.

The capsule also contains inactive ingredients—rice flour, hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, vegetable magnesium stearate, and silicon dioxide—which are fillers and binders that hold the supplement together.

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 data for this product in our records. If you're considering riboflavin for a specific health goal—whether that's energy, eye health, migraine prevention, or another reason—talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist to see whether there's evidence it might help 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 very well tolerated. Any excess your body doesn't use is removed through your urine, so buildup isn't a concern.

At 100 mg, you might notice bright yellow urine or a mild dose-related nausea, though these are uncommon. Rare cases of diarrhea have been reported at higher doses.

Riboflavin is considered safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding at recommended amounts, but if you're pregnant or nursing and want to use a supplement, check with your provider first—especially since this is a 100 mg dose, which is higher than typical daily needs.

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 a tetracycline antibiotic (such as doxycycline, tetracycline, or minocycline), check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking this product. Riboflavin may reduce the antibiotic's effectiveness, and your provider may need to adjust timing or dosing.

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.

Riboflavin is a straightforward B vitamin that most people tolerate well. The main thing to watch for is if you're on a tetracycline antibiotic—riboflavin may reduce how well it works.

Before you start, run your exact medications through the checker on this page, and talk with your doctor or pharmacist about timing and whether this supplement is right for you.

Yes. Based on its ingredients, Vitamin B2 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 B2 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 turn my urine bright yellow?
It might. At higher doses, riboflavin causes dose-related bright yellow urine. At 100 mg, this is possible but not guaranteed. It's harmless—just a sign your body is clearing excess riboflavin through your urine.
Is this safe to take while pregnant or breastfeeding?
Riboflavin is needed during both pregnancy and breastfeeding and is generally safe at recommended amounts. This product is 100 mg, which is higher than typical daily needs, so check with your doctor or pharmacist before you start to make sure the dose is right for you.
Can this cause nausea?
Dose-related nausea is the most common side effect, though it's still uncommon at normal doses. If you experience nausea after starting, mention it to your pharmacist—they can advise whether it's likely from the riboflavin or worth continuing.
What is riboflavin used for?
Riboflavin (vitamin B2) helps your body turn food into energy and supports the health of your eyes, nerves, and skin. We don't have effectiveness data for specific conditions in our records—talk with your doctor about whether this supplement might help your particular health goal.
How many active ingredients are in this?
Just one: riboflavin. The other ingredients are inactive fillers and binders that keep the capsule together.
