What Is Vitamin B11?

Possible Side Effects of Vitamin B11

Before applying vitamin B11, it is necessary to do a small test on the skin to ensure that it does not cause allergies. Possible side effects include itching, hives, faintness, throat tightness, trouble breathing, as well as swelling in the tongue, lips, face, and eyes. During this period, avoid using alcohol-containing skincare products or harsh cleansers. They would dry your skin and lead to serious irritation when used with vitamin B11. In some rare cases, salicylate toxicity could happen, especially in people with kidney or liver diseases and young people. Typical symptoms include diarrhea, hyperpnea, psychic disturbances, lethargy, tinnitus, hearing loss, vomiting, and nausea. If you notice these signs, stop applying vitamin B11 immediately and visit your healthcare provider. [3]
