What are some side effects from a b complex vitamin? will it increase anxiety?

Dr. Paul Pyles answered

Specializes in Addiction Medicine

It is possible : The B complex vitamins are water soluble and usually well-tolerated. Some people experience nausea. It is possible to experience increased anxiety especially with higher doses. I generally advise patients to take only the daily recommended amount.
