B6 Toxicity Peripheral Neuropathy
Quick Answer: High-dose vitamin B6 (over 100mg/day long-term) can paradoxically cause peripheral neuropathy. Symptoms include numbness, balance loss, and burning feet. Stop B6 immediately if symptoms develop.
B6 Recovery
Stop all B6 supplements (check multivitamins too). Recovery can take 6-12 months. Severe cases may have residual symptoms.
FAQ
How much B6 is safe?
The upper limit is 100mg/day for adults; staying below 50mg/day from supplements is safer.
