Drug Interactions

1. The combination of low-dose vitamin B6 (5 mg per day) and levodopa can reduce the efficacy of the latter in treating Parkinson's disease. However, if the preparation contains decarboxylase inhibitors such as carbidopa, it has no effect on levodopa. 2. Chloramphenicol, hydralazine hydrochloride, isoniazid, penicillamine and immunosuppressants including glucocorticoids, cyclophosphamide, cyclosporine and other drugs can antagonize vitamin B6 or enhance the excretion of vitamin B6 through the kidneys, and may even cause anemia or peripheral neuritis. 3. The dosage of vitamin B6 should be increased when taking estrogen, because estrogen can reduce the activity of vitamin B6 in the body. 4. If used with other drugs at the same time, drug interactions may occur. Please consult a doctor or pharmacist for details.

Storage
