Introduction: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the B-6 vitamers in plasma and related symptoms in hemodialysis subjects taking high- or low-dose vitamins. Methods: A total of 24 hemodialysis (HD) subjects were divided into two groups. Twelve subjects received a high-dose vitamin supplement [50 mg pyridoxine hydrochloride (PN-HCl) /tablet] and 12 received a low-dose vitamin supplements containing (10 mg PN-HCl/tablet) for 6+ months. Plasma B-6 vitamers were analyzed using HPLC. Other data were obtained from subjects medical records. Subjects were assessed for vitamin B-6 related symptoms. Cluster analysis was used to form symptom groups. Student t-tests and analysis of variance were used to determine differences (p < 0.05) in group means. Results: The mean ±SD plasma B-6 vitamer and 4-pyridoxic acid concentrations (nmol/L) were as follows in the 10-mg and 50-mg PN-HCl groups, respectively: pyridoxal- 5-phosphate (PLP) 10 ± 3 and 16 ± 8 (p = 0.04); pyridoxal (PL) 50 ± 96 and 68 ± 06; pyridoxine (PN) 26 ± 50 and 191 ± 107; and 4-pyridoxic acid (4-PA) 43 ± 64 and 99 ± 361. The cluster group with a significantly higher (p = 0.04) plasma 4-PA concentration of 167 ± 697 nmol/L reported more tingling hands, tachycardia, and diarrhea. Conclusion: Plasma PLP levels and symptoms related to B-6 in HD subjects are impacted by dose of PN-HCl.
