HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin B-6 100 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 (also called pyridoxine), supplied at 100 mg per tablet. Vitamin B6 is a water-soluble vitamin your body needs for nerve function, immune health, and metabolism.
The remaining ingredients are inactive — microcrystalline cellulose, dicalcium phosphate, stearic acid, magnesium stearate, and silicon dioxide — which serve as binders, fillers, and anti-caking agents in the tablet.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
The evidence supports vitamin B6 for sideroblastic anemia (a blood disorder), vitamin B6 deficiency itself, and pyridoxine-dependent epilepsy — all rated Effective. It is Likely Effective for high homocysteine levels (hyperhomocysteinemia), a heart-health concern.
For pregnancy-related nausea and vomiting, the evidence is Possibly Effective, though use in pregnancy should be only under a doctor's guidance. For other uses, the evidence we hold does not establish effectiveness.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Vitamin B6 is well tolerated in doses under 100 mg daily, though the most common side effects at any dose are abdominal pain, allergic reactions, headache, heartburn, loss of appetite, nausea, somnolence, and vomiting. High doses over time carry a serious risk: sensory neuropathy (nerve damage), especially with doses above 1,000 mg daily or total lifetime doses of 1,000 grams or more — though nerve damage can occur at lower doses too.
The product facts note caution with high doses and advise against them unless a doctor recommends otherwise. For pregnancy and breastfeeding, there is no safety rating on file; talk with your doctor or pharmacist about whether this product is right for you in those situations.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, check whether you're on seizure medications (phenytoin or phenobarbital) — high-dose vitamin B6 may lower their effectiveness. Also double-check if you take blood pressure medications or amiodarone.
If you're on levodopa for Parkinson's, verify it's combined with carbidopa (the standard formulation) — if it's levodopa alone, this product may reduce its effect.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
Vitamin B6 at 100 mg is a reasonable dose for deficiency or certain blood and neurological conditions, but if you take seizure medications, blood pressure drugs, or amiodarone, check with us first — the dose here may interact. If you're pregnant or considering this for morning sickness, your doctor should weigh in.
For anyone else, run your medications through the checker before you start.

Vitamin B-6 100 mg by Bronson Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Bronson's Vitamin B-6 100 mg contains a single active ingredient that interacts with several medication types.
The most serious concern is with seizure medications: high doses of vitamin B6 may reduce blood levels and effectiveness of phenytoin (Dilantin) and phenobarbital (Luminal), possibly by speeding up how your liver breaks them down. The dose in this product (100 mg) is considered high in this context.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Vitamin B6 also has documented moderate interactions with blood pressure medications (antihypertensive drugs), where it may add to their blood-pressure-lowering effect, and with amiodarone (Cordarone), a heart rhythm medication, where it might worsen the drug's photosensitivity risk (increased sun sensitivity). There is a minor interaction with levodopa (a Parkinson's medication) — but only if you're taking levodopa alone, not when it's combined with carbidopa, which is the standard formulation (Sinemet).
Altogether, these interactions span 208 individual medications. Because this product's dose may be high enough to affect seizure medication levels, check your exact medications with the tool on this page before starting.

Read the full Vitamin B6 + Belladonna Extract, Phenobarbital interactionEach ingredient & the kinds of drugs it affects
For each ingredient in Vitamin B-6 100 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.
