The real cost of Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin), per dose
For the exact same amount of Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) — the same mg of active ingredient — the priciest products cost a 9.6× premium over the cheapest. We measured it across 46 tracked products, normalized to cost per mg.
Is the premium brand worth it?
On price, usually not. Two bottles of Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) can carry the identical active dose at wildly different prices — the spread between the cheap and the premium end is 9.6× per mg, from a low around $0.0002 to a high near $0.0020. A higher sticker price is not a reliable signal of a better product; most of that gap is branding and margin, not more Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin). Pay up only for a verifiable difference — third-party testing, or a specific better-absorbed form — never for the packaging.
Right now the best value in our catalog is Piping Rock Vitamin B2 100mg | 180 Capsules | Riboflavin… at $0.05 per serving — against a catalog median of $0.116/serving.
How we calculated it
Cost per active unit = price ÷ (servings per container × dose per serving), measured in Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin)’s dominant dose unit (mg) so we only ever compare like with like — mg of Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) against mg of Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin).
Spread = the 90th-percentile cost per mg ÷ the 10th-percentile. Using the 10th/90th percentiles (not the absolute min/max) deliberately excludes one-off outliers and mislabeled listings. Based on 46 active Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin) products from our live Amazon US catalog, recomputed hourly. This is a value comparison, not medical or dosing advice.
