Vitamin B6 Supplements
Although pyridoxine has been shown to be effective against a high number of conditions, dosages of this helpful vitamin should stay between 50 and 100 mg per day. If taking more than 50 mg per day, divide it into several doses. These amounts are believed to be safe for long-term use. Some experts feel that vitamin B6 is most effective when taken alone, rather than in a vitamin B complex.
