Hello,

Yes, there are many vitamin B6 tablets available in markets with many different brand names like tablet pyridoxine etcetera. But it won't serve your purpose of not able to digest the protein. It's true that vitamin B6 helps in the metabolism of protein but we first need to work out whether you are not able to digest protein because of vitamin B6 deficiency, or it's because of some protein lytic enzyme deficiency. So I would suggest you to first get your enzyme essay done.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Medhavi Agarwal
