Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) is involved in over 100 enzyme reactions in the body, primarily related to protein metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, and immune function. Adequate B6 is critical for producing serotonin, dopamine, and GABA — key brain chemicals that regulate mood and sleep. Both deficiency and excessive supplementation can cause peripheral neuropathy, making monitoring important for those taking B6 supplements.
Vitamin and nutrient testing identifies deficiencies that can drive fatigue, immune dysfunction, neurological symptoms, and long-term disease risk — and confirms that supplementation is working.
Anyone with restrictive diets (vegan, low-fat, low-carb), malabsorption conditions, fatigue, hair loss, mood changes, or currently supplementing and wanting to verify dosing.

Your Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) results will include values for each of the 1 biomarker tested, along with reference ranges. Results are reviewed by a licensed physician before being released to your secure portal.
If any values fall outside the normal range, your report will include guidance on what that may mean and recommended next steps. You'll receive an email notification when your results are ready, typically within 3–5 business days.
Typical reference range layout
Lab reports show where your value sits relative to established reference intervals—your physician interprets this in context for you.
No fasting required. If taking B6 supplements, note the dosage for your provider.
A Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine) test costs $51.99 at TestWell — $57.99 all-in when ordered alone, because the $6 lab processing fee is charged once per order, with no draw fee or physician fee added. Hospital outpatient labs typically bill around $160.00 self-pay for the same test, and often more. With insurance, what you pay depends on your deductible and your plan's negotiated rate; TestWell's price is fixed before the draw and is HSA/FSA-eligible.
