  • Pyroluria supplements - B6 and zinc

    Is there an amount of these nutrients, B6/P-5-P and zinc, that is ok to take if you have evidence of pyroluria?

    EveG,

    Do not exceed 40mg of B6 in a day, and RDA of zinc is 12-15mg a day, zinc acetate or zinc gluconate is preferred, zinc sulfate should not be used, absorption of zinc by the infant in maternal milk is high. Be sure you are adding total amounts for all vitamin/supplements you are taking. Hope this helps, call the InfantRisk Center if you have any other questions 806-352-2519, Thanks,
