The document discusses vitamin B complex supplements and their potential side effects. It begins by explaining that vitamin B is a group of eight water-soluble vitamins that play vital roles in bodily processes. While supplements are generally safe, overdosing can cause side effects like black stools, abdominal pain, and nausea. Each individual B vitamin is then examined in more detail, outlining recommended daily intakes and possible adverse reactions like flushing, diarrhea or allergic responses from high doses. The document stresses consulting a doctor before taking B complex supplements, especially for pregnant/breastfeeding women or those with medical conditions.

1. Vitamin B Complex Supplement Side Effects
The term 'vitamin B family' refers to a group of eight water-soluble vitamins. Initially, vitamin B was
considered to be a single vitamin. However, research studies that were conducted later, revealed
that vitamin B family is composed of eight vitamins called thiamine (vitamin B1), riboflavin (vitamin
B2), niacin (vitamin B3), pantothenic acid (vitamin B5), pyridoxine (vitamin B6), biotin (vitamin B7),
folic acid (vitamin B9), and cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12).
These vitamins are chemically distinct from each other. Each of these vitamins play a vital role in
bodily processes that are integral to the healthy functioning of the human body.
The supplements that contain all the eight B vitamins are referred to as vitamin B-complex. Unlike
fat-soluble vitamins, vitamin B is flushed out of the body through urine.
Though these supplements are believed to have a low potential for toxicity, transient vitamin B
complex side effects may be experienced by a person who takes this supplement in large doses.
Side Effects of Vitamin B Complex Supplements
Vitamin B complex side effects may only be experienced if the supplements are taken in large doses
or doses that are higher than the tolerable upper intake levels. Common side effects (if any) of a
vitamin B-complex overdose include:
? Black stools
? Abdominal pain
? Constipation
? Nausea
? Vomiting
? Change in the color of urine
? Frequent urination
? Diarrhea
? Redness of skin
? Itching
In very rare cases, the use of these supplements could cause allergic reactions, itching and rashes,
or the development of kidney stones. There may be unreported side effects too. In case you
experience side effects that persist, contact your physician immediately.
Side Effects of Individual B Vitamins
2. While the aforementioned side effects are those of vitamin B complex group, given below are the
possible adverse effects of each component of the B-complex supplements. There may be other
unreported side effects. As mentioned above, if any of the adverse effects are unusually severe or
begin to make you feel very uncomfortable, contact your physician immediately.

Things to Consider Before Taking Vitamin B Complex
Before taking B complex supplements, it is advisable to consult your health care provider to find out
if you need to take vitamin B-complex supplements or not. It would be best not to consume these
supplements without consultation, especially under the following circumstances:
? Women who are pregnant or breastfeeding must consult a doctor to know if they need to take
vitamin B. These supplements must be taken as per the prescribed dosage.
14. ? Do inform your doctor if you have a history of stomach ulcer, diabetes, liver problems, or gout.
? Inform your doctor if you are taking other medicines, so as to prevent adverse drug interactions.
? Inform your doctor if you suffer from a drug allergy.
Though the use of vitamin supplements can prove beneficial for those who suffer from a vitamin B
deficiency, do seek medical help if you experience any of the aforementioned vitamin B complex side
effects. You must also try to follow a healthy diet and make the necessary lifestyle changes. It would
be best to include the dietary sources of vitamin B in your diet rather than taking vitamin
supplements.
