Looked it up on google and it provided me with this summary above the search:

"Ultra Muscleze® P5P," a product by BioCeuticals, contains 53.7 mg of the active form of vitamin B6 (pyridoxal 5-phosphate monohydrate) per tablet. This equates to 34.2 mg of pyridoxine (vitamin B6).

That's interesting. The product I looked up has 50mg of the pyridoxine hydrochloride form of vitamin B6: https://www.bioceuticals.com.au/products/ultra-muscleze

Interesting that they ostensibly make a version with the P-5-P form. I've read that the P-5-P form is less associated with neuropathy. As a personal anecdote, 50mg of pyridoxine hydrochloride daily for a couple of weeks gave me nothing except numb fingers (which resolved after a few weeks). However, 12mg of P-5-P with my magnesium supplement has been life-changing so far. Been taking 350mg of magnesium daily for a year or more but only when adding the P-5-P with it, do I have relief from cramps.

Anyone in the know: is there some condition that would explain this?
