HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin B2 100 mg by Nutricost
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: riboflavin (vitamin B2) at 100 mg per capsule. Riboflavin is a B vitamin that plays a role in energy production and cell function in your body.
The capsule also contains inactive ingredients — rice flour, hypromellose, and magnesium stearate — which are fillers and binders.
Does it work?
Couldn't assess
The data we hold does not include effectiveness ratings for riboflavin as a supplement. If you're considering this product for a specific purpose, your doctor or pharmacist can help you understand what the evidence shows.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Riboflavin is generally well tolerated. The most common side effects are dose-related nausea and bright yellow urine discoloration — both harmless.
Rarely, diarrhea or increased urination have been reported at high doses. Since your body removes excess riboflavin in your urine, it's considered very safe at standard doses.
Riboflavin is needed during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Standard amounts are generally safe, but because this is a 100 mg supplement, check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking it if you're pregnant or nursing — they can advise on whether a high-dose supplement is right for you.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, double-check if you're on tetracycline antibiotics (such as doxycycline or minocycline). Riboflavin may reduce their effectiveness, though this hasn't been proven in humans.
Talk with your doctor or pharmacist about timing or adjustments if you need both.
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.
Nutricost Vitamin B2 100 mg is a straightforward riboflavin supplement that most people tolerate well. The main thing to watch for is if you take tetracycline antibiotics — you'll want to clear this with your doctor or pharmacist first.
If you're pregnant or breastfeeding, talk it over with your provider about whether a high-dose B2 supplement fits your situation.
