Can I take Evening primrose oil and Vitamin b complex together?

Why this happens

Evening primrose oil is a source of essential fatty acids (specifically gamma-linolenic acid), while vitamin B complex consists of water-soluble vitamins. These substances are processed by the body through different pathways and do not interfere with each other's absorption, metabolism, or effectiveness.

What you should do

You can safely take these two supplements together. As with all supplements, it is best to follow the dosage instructions on the packaging or those provided by your healthcare professional. Taking them with food may help prevent any mild stomach upset.
