Can I take Folic acid and Vitamin b2 together?

Why this happens

Folic acid and Vitamin B2 are both water-soluble B vitamins. They do not interfere with each other's absorption or metabolism. Instead, they have a complementary relationship; Vitamin B2 is actually required to help the body convert folic acid into its active form (methylfolate) so it can be used properly.

What you should do

It is safe to take these two vitamins together. They are frequently found combined in the same multivitamin or B-complex supplement. No special precautions are needed.
