HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin B6 100 mg by Bronson
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 (pyridoxine), at 100 mg per tablet. The effectiveness ratings we hold cover vitamin B6 deficiency, sideroblastic anemia, pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy, hyperhomocysteinemia (high homocysteine, a blood marker), and pregnancy-induced nausea and vomiting.
The inactive ingredients are microcrystalline cellulose, dicalcium phosphate, stearic acid, magnesium stearate, and silicon dioxide. These are non-active materials used in making the tablet, and they are not counted as active ingredients.
Does it work?
Not established
Our data rates vitamin B6 as effective for vitamin B6 deficiency, sideroblastic anemia, and pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy. It is rated likely effective for hyperhomocysteinemia.
For pregnancy-induced nausea and vomiting, the rating is possibly effective, which is a weaker level of support than the ratings above.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Vitamin B6 is generally well tolerated in doses below 100 mg daily, according to our data. This tablet is at that 100 mg level, so it's worth discussing the dose with your doctor.
Common side effects include abdominal pain, allergic reactions, headache, heartburn, loss of appetite, nausea, somnolence (drowsiness), and vomiting. The rare serious effect in our data is sensory neuropathy, a nerve problem linked to high doses.
Our safety notes advise keeping to normal amounts and avoiding high doses unless a clinician advises them.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Double-check antihypertensive drugs first, since the interaction is rated Moderate and can add to blood pressure lowering. Phenobarbital, phenytoin, and amiodarone are also rated Moderate, and levodopa is rated Minor.
Use the search tool on this page to check your specific medications.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This product may be worth discussing with your doctor if you have a documented vitamin B6 deficiency or one of the other conditions our ratings cover. If you take blood pressure medicines, antiseizure drugs such as phenobarbital or phenytoin, amiodarone, or levodopa, be especially careful and talk it over with your own doctor or pharmacist first.
Anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding should get personalized advice before using it.

Vitamin B6 100 mg by Bronson Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Bronson's Vitamin B6 100 mg does interact with several medications, and its single active ingredient, vitamin B6, is responsible for all of them.
The most serious is with antihypertensive drugs (blood pressure medicines), rated Moderate. Vitamin B6 may have additive effects with these drugs, and high doses have been shown to lower systolic and diastolic blood pressure, so the combined effect could be more than you intend.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
The other drug types are antiseizure medicines, a heart rhythm drug, and a Parkinson's medicine. Phenobarbital and phenytoin (both antiseizure drugs) are rated Moderate.
High doses may lower their levels and clinical effects, and people taking them are advised to avoid high doses of vitamin B6. Amiodarone, a heart rhythm drug, is also rated Moderate, because vitamin B6 might increase the sun sensitivity it causes.
Levodopa, used for Parkinson's, is rated Minor: vitamin B6 may speed its breakdown, but this does not occur when carbidopa is taken with it. Altogether, these interactions span 210 individual medications.

For each ingredient in Vitamin B6 100 mg 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.
