The dosage we used was less than the studied dosage with intent to target a favorable safety profile (some individuals can experience peripheral neuropathy with very high doses of vitamin B6).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.frontiersin.org\/articles\/10.3389\/fpsyt.2021.681418\/full\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVitamian B6 (P5P): Safety and Efficacy of High-Dose Vitamin B6 as an Adjunctive Treatment for Antipsychotic-Induced Hyperprolactinemia in Male Patients With Treatment-Resistant Schizophrenia\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"left\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e \u003ccol width=\"144\"\u003e \u003ccol width=\"480\"\u003e \u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEffect\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVitamin B6 supplementation led to an average of a 68.1% reduction in serum prolactin levels.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTrial Design\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRandomized double-blinded controlled study\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTrial Length\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 16 weeks\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNumber of Subjects\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 200\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePopulation\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePatients with Treatment-Resistant-Schizophrenia, adult males between 20 and 40 years of age.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDosage\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 300 mg\/12 h\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eZhuo, C., Xu, Y., Wang, H., Fang, T., Chen, J., Zhou, C., Li, Q., Liu, J., Xu, S., Yao, C., Yang, W., Yang, A., Li, B., Chen, Y., Tian, H., \u0026amp; Lin, C.

G Test Max implements a dosage in line with the RDA for vitamin D3 as a conservative approach, to reduce the risk of hypervitaminosis D for those who already consume a daily vitamin D supplement or plan to take this perpetually (fat-soluble vitamins can accumulate in tissues if taken in excess for long durations and can lead to toxicity if levels become too high).\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/21154195\/\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEffect of vitamin D supplementation on testosterone levels in men\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv align=\"left\" dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e \u003ccol width=\"118\"\u003e \u003ccol width=\"506\"\u003e \u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEffect\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eVitamin D supplementation led to significant increases in total testosterone levels (from 10.7±3.9 nmol\/l to 13.4±4.7 nmol\/l; p\u0026lt;0.001), bioactive testosterone (from 5.21±1.87 nmol\/l to 6.25±2.01 nmol\/l; p=0.001), and free testosterone levels (from 0.222±0.080 nmol\/l to 0.267±0.087 nmol\/l; p=0.001). \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe placebo group did not experience any significant changes in testosterone measures. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTrial Design\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Randomized Control Trial\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTrial Length\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 12 months\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNumber of Subjects\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 54 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePopulation\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e Men (age range not specified, greater than 20+ years old)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDosage\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e 3,332 IU\/day\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePilz, S., Frisch, S., Koertke, H., Kuhn, J., Dreier, J., Obermayer-Pietsch, B., Wehr, E., \u0026amp; Zittermann, A.
