Vitamin B6 in the treatment of the premenstrual syndrome--a review.

J Kleijnen1, G Ter Riet, P Knipschild.   

Abstract

A search of the literature yielded 12 controlled trials on vitamin B6 in the treatment of the premenstrual syndrome. These are discussed with emphasis on methodological aspects. A major drawback of the trials is the limited number of patients included. The existing evidence of positive effects of vitamin B6 is weak, and some well-designed trials with positive results would be needed to change this view.
