Signs and Symptoms of Overdose: Pyridoxine Hydrochloride (B6): Prolonged use of large doses of pyridoxine is associated with development of severe peripheral neuropathies.
Cyanocobalamin (B12): Doses greater than 10 mcg daily may produce hematological response in patients with folate deficiency.
Ascorbic Acid: Large doses are reported to cause gastrointestinal disturbances (e.g., diarrhea), hyperoxaluria, formation of renal calcium oxalate calculi. Tolerance may also be induced with prolonged use of large doses.
What to Do When the Patient has Taken More Than the Recommended Usage: If the patient has taken more than the recommended dosage, consult a physician immediately.

When Should the Patient Not Take This Medicine: If the patient is allergic to any component of the product.
Cyanocobalamin (B12) should, if possible, not be given to patients with suspected vitamin B12 deficiency without first confirming the diagnosis. Also, it should not be used for Leber's disease or tobacco amblyopia. Ascorbic Acid should be given with care to patients with hyperoxaluria and glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency.

Do not take more than the recommended dose.

Riboflavin (B2): Large doses may result in bright yellow discoloration of the urine that may interfere with certain laboratory test.
Pyridoxine Hydrochloride (B6): Long-term use of large doses of pyridoxine is associated with development of severe peripheral neuropathies.
Cyanocobalamin (B12): Use of doses greater than 10 mcg daily may produce hematological response in patients with folate deficiency.
Ascorbic Acid: Ascorbic acid is generally well tolerated. However, large doses are reported to cause diarrhea and other gastrointestinal disturbances, hyperoxaluria and formation of calcium oxalate calculi. Tolerance may be induced with prolonged use of large doses.
If the symptoms persist or worsen, or if the patient is experiencing an adverse reaction from this medicine, consult a physician.

Pyridoxine Hydrochloride (B6): Effects of levodopa are reduced with administration of vitamin B6, but it does not occur if a dopa decarboxylase inhibitor is also given. Vitamin B6 reduces the activity of altretamine. It has also been reported to decrease serum concentrations of phenobarbital. Many drugs increase the requirements for vitamin B6 such as hydralazine, isoniazid, penicillamine and oral contraceptives.
Cyanocobalamin (B12): Absorption of vitamin B12 from the gastrointestinal tract may be reduced by neomycin, aminosalicylic acid, histamine H2-antagonist, omeprazole, and colchicine. Vitamin B12 serum concentrations may be decreased by use of oral contraceptives. Parenteral chloramphenicol may attenuate the effect of vitamin B12 in anemia.
Ascorbic Acid: It should not be given for the first month after starting desferrioxamine treatment. Giving ascorbic acid for vitamin C deficiency to patient receiving fluphenazine for bipolar disorder was associated with decreased in serum concentrations of fluphenazine and deterioration of behavior. Omeprazole may affect the bioavailability of dietary vitamin C.
