Solgar Vitamin B6 25 mg
Brand: Solgar · Form: TABLET [E0155] On Market
Our assessment
The evidence shows that Solgar Vitamin B6 25 mg is a supplement providing a specific nutrient, but the data available does not directly cover vitamin B6. The data provided is for the mineral calcium. Based on the available data, we cannot assess vitamin B6 specifically. For calcium, the data confirms it supports bone density and nerve signaling [NIH ODS].
How it works
Think of calcium as a structural building block for your bones and a key player in nerve and muscle function. It supports bone mineralization and helps with neuromuscular relaxation [NIH ODS].
Safety profile
The FDA received a total of 592,059 adverse event reports across all supplements. For calcium specifically, high intakes might increase the risk of heart disease and prostate cancer. High levels in the blood and urine can cause poor muscle tone, poor kidney function, low phosphate levels, constipation, nausea, weight loss, extreme tiredness, frequent need to urinate, abnormal heart rhythms, and a high risk of death from heart disease [NIH ODS] [FDA data].
Our recommendation
Since the data provided is for calcium, not vitamin B6, we cannot make a recommendation for this specific product. For calcium, be aware that it can reduce the absorption of medications like bisphosphonates, tetracycline antibiotics, and levothyroxine [NIH ODS]. Data not available for Solgar Vitamin B6 25 mg specifically.
