What it is and how it works
Riboflavin is the precursor of the coenzymes flavin mononucleotide (FMN) and flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD), which act as electron carriers in oxidation–reduction reactions of energy metabolism.
Indications
Prevention and treatment of riboflavin deficiency (ariboflavinosis), usually as part of multiple B-vitamin deficiency; high-dose riboflavin is also used under specialist supervision in some inherited metabolic disorders and for migraine prophylaxis.
Dosage and administration (summary)
Deficiency: typically 5–30 mg daily in divided doses until resolved. Higher doses (for example 400 mg daily) are used in migraine prophylaxis or metabolic disorders under specialist advice.
Contraindications
Hypersensitivity to riboflavin or to any excipient.
Warnings and precautions
Riboflavin colours the urine bright yellow, which is harmless and may interfere with some urine tests.
Pregnancy
Safe at recommended dietary doses; high doses should be used only on medical advice.
