In adults, compared with placebo, these supplements did not significantly affect other outcomes, and omega-3 supplementation did not yield a statistically significant reduction in any of these outcomes.
Riboflavin supplements for blood pressure lowering in adults
The Cochrane database of systematic reviews (2025) · Meta analysis · n=320
The evidence for the effect of oral riboflavin supplements on systolic and diastolic blood pressure is very uncertain.
Based on multiple meta-analyses showing improved menstrual regularity and ovulation in PCOS. Evidence quality varies across studies with some showing minimal differences vs placebo. 4g daily most commonly studied dose.
Based on meta-analysis showing significant reduction in migraine frequency, days, duration, and pain score. High heterogeneity (I2=65-89%) in pooled analyses suggests variable individual responses. Most studies used 400mg daily dose.
