SciatiEase vitamin ingredients are four B vitamins: riboflavin (B2) 25 mg, B6 20 mg, folate 500 mcg DFE and B12 1 mg per 4 capsules, plus benfotiamine. Their %DV figures are very high. The B6 line is the one to check against the upper limits.

The vitamins01
What are the SciatiEase vitamin ingredients?
The SciatiEase vitamin ingredients are riboflavin-5-phosphate, pyridoxal-5-phosphate, 5-methyltetrahydrofolate and methylcobalamin. These are the active forms of B2, B6, folate and B12.
Benfotiamine, a fat-soluble B1 derivative, adds 200 mg (NIH ODS, Thiamin (benfotiamine)). See the supplement facts.
| Vitamin | Amount | %DV |
|---|---|---|
| B2 (riboflavin) | 25 mg | 1,923% |
| B6 (pyridoxal-5-phosphate) | 20 mg | 1,177% |
| Folate | 500 mcg DFE | 120% |
| B12 (methylcobalamin) | 1 mg | 41,667% |
On the panel02
Why are the percent daily values so high?
The percent daily values are high because the amounts far exceed the small daily needs. B12, for example, has a need of 2.4 mcg (NIH ODS, Vitamin B12).
A high %DV is not a mark of quality. It is a ratio.

FAQ05
Questions about the B vitamins
Is 20 mg of vitamin B6 too much?
It is under the US limit of 100 mg but above Europe's 12 mg. Stop and call a doctor if tingling or numbness worsens, and count B6 from other products.
Does methylcobalamin matter more than cyanocobalamin?
Methylcobalamin is an active B12 form. We found no head-to-head proof that it works better on nerves, so treat the form as a label detail, not a promise.
Can folate in a supplement hide low B12?
Yes. Large folate amounts can correct the anemia of B12 deficiency but not the nerve effects. If you have numbness, ask for a B12 blood test.
