Warnings

Not suitable for children under 4 years of age. For children of any age, please speak with a qualified healthcare professional who can determine an appropriate dose or whether this product is safe for them to take.

If you are being treated for any condition or are currently taking any medications, consult with your healthcare professional before considering the use of this product.

For pregnant and breastfeeding women, please talk to your qualified healthcare professional before considering the use of this product as this product has not been tested for safety in these groups.

Side Effects
Side effects of B vitamins may uncommonly include:

  • Nausea
  • Orange urine
  • Stomach upset
  • Rash 
  • Flushing
  • Itching
  • Mild fever
  • Sometimes stomach upset

Individuals who have recently undergone surgery for a coronary stent should avoid using B12. 

B Complex Mf contains niacin - if you are sensitive to niacin, you may experience a "flush" sensation when using this product. This is a result of the niacin dilating blood vessels and increasing circulation under the surface of the skin. This can cause redness, a sensation of warmth, itching, tingling, or sometimes a pulsating sensation - especially in the face or neck, or the upper torso. 

If you believe that you are experiencing any adverse reactions, please see your healthcare professional immediately. Each individual may react differently to any product or supplement. We always recommend that you consult with your healthcare professional prior to considering the use of this product or any supplement.
