The move comes after growing evidence emerged that long-term use of high doses can cause life-altering nerve damage.<\/p>\n<p>Under the new rules, low-dose B6 products will stay on regular retail shelves, while anything stronger will soon require a conversation with a pharmacist or even a doctor\u2019s prescription. Below, exactly what you need to know.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>So, what is changing when it comes to purchasing vitamin B6?<\/h2>\n<p>There are set to be new rules in place, depending on how much vitamin B6 a supplement or product contains. These can be broken down as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Up to 50 mg per day<\/strong>: still available for general sale in supermarkets and online<\/li>\n<li><strong>More than 50 mg and up to 200 mg per day<\/strong>: only available over the counter with advice from a pharmacist<\/li>\n<li><strong>Over 200 mg per day<\/strong>: prescription-only<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>When do these rules come into effect?<\/h2>\n<p>The updated safety controls will roll out from 1 June 2027, giving brands, pharmacies and healthcare providers time to adjust labels and manage stock.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Why is vitamin B6 being regulated?<\/h2>\n<p>While vitamin B6 is essential \u2014 helping with things like metabolism, cognitive function and nervous system health \u2014 Australians typically get enough from food. The average adult only needs around 1.1\u20131.7 mg per day, and deficiency is relatively rare outside of older adults or people with certain health conditions.<\/p>\n<p>New findings suggest that the real concern is actually related to too much B6 which, taken over long periods, can cause peripheral neuropathy \u2014 symptoms like tingling, burning, numbness or weakness in the hands and feet. These symptoms can be severe and sometimes irreversible.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>And what does this mean for consumers?<\/h2>\n<p>If you take multivitamins or B-complex supplements, it\u2019s worth checking the label. It&#8217;s also important to note that vitamin B6 may also be listed as pyridoxine, pyridoxamine or pyridoxal.<\/p>\n<p>If you notice any nerve-related symptoms, the current advice is to stop taking these supplements immediately and speak to a healthcare professional. You can also report any supplement-related side effects via the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tga.gov.au\/safety\/report-problem\/report-adverse-event-or-safety-problem\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TGA\u2019s Adverse Event Reporting System<\/a>, which helps regulators track emerging safety issues.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n#ag_sc_newsletter { margin:3em 0 1em; }\n#ag_sc_newsletter .row_sc { overflow:hidden; }\n#ag_sc_newsletter.solo .col_half { width:auto; float:none; margin-bottom:2em; }\n#ag_sc_newsletter .col_half h3 { text-align:center !important; }\n#ag_sc_newsletter .col_half h3.icon { margin-bottom:0.75em; }\n#ag_sc_newsletter .col_half h3.icon i { font-size:inherit !important; }\n#ag_sc_s { background:#fff; color:#000; text-align:center; border:solid 1px #000; padding:6em 3em; margin:0 1em; }\n#ag_sc_s h3 { margin-bottom:1em !important; }\n#main article .entry-content #ag_sc_s ul { font-size:14px; }\n#ag_sc_s ul { overflow:hidden; list-style-type:none; text-align:center; display:inline-block; }\n#ag_sc_s ul li { float:left; list-style-type:none; margin:0 0.5em; }\n#ag_sc_s ul li i { font-size:2.4em !important; }\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"ag_sc_newsletter\" class=\"solo\">\n  <div class=\"row_sc\">\n    <div id=\"ag_sc_s\" class=\"col_half\">\n      <h3>Stay inspired, follow us.<\/h3>\n      <ul>\n        <li><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/russhmagazine\/\"><i class=\"fa fa-instagram\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><\/li>\n        <li><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@russhmagazine\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"russh_svg\" src=\"\/wp-content\/themes\/russh\/img\/tiktok-brands-solid.png\" alt=\"RUSSH TikTok icon\" height=\"30\" style=\"max-height:30px;\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n        <li><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/RusshMagazine\/\"><i class=\"fa fa-facebook\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><\/li>\n        <li><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com.au\/russhaustralia\/\"><i class=\"fa fa-pinterest\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><\/li>\n        <li><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/Russhmag\"><i class=\"fa fa-youtube\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/a><\/li>\n        <li><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/russh_magazine\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"russh_svg\" src=\"\/wp-content\/themes\/russh\/img\/x-twitter-brands-solid.png\" alt=\"RUSSH X icon\" height=\"30\" style=\"max-height:30px;\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n      <\/ul>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div> \n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It comes after growing evidence emerged that long-term use of high doses can cause life-altering nerve damage.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":65,"featured_media":268376,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[4539,36],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-272245","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-health","category-wellbeing"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>The TGA is tightening safety rules for vitamin B6 | what you need to know - RUSSH<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Restrictions around the sale and packaging of B6 vitamins have been introduced.
