This is a single blood test for vitamin B6, a nutrient involved in nerve function that is tested less often than B12 or folate. It suits people who have a specific reason to check their B6 level rather than those wanting a broader vitamin screen.
1 biomarker as listed by Blue Horizon Medicals.
This test measures vitamin B6 in your blood. B6 is a nutrient the body uses for normal nerve function, and it is tested less often than vitamins such as B12 or folate. As a water-soluble vitamin, B6 is not stored by the body for long, so a blood test offers a snapshot of your level at the time of the sample rather than a long-term store, in contrast to fat-soluble vitamins.
Blue Horizon does not group this test against named competitors in our data, so we cannot say how it compares on price to specific alternatives. Against the wider set of similarly sized vitamin tests we track, though, its price sits well above the typical range, and this is reflected in a below-average value for money score. Collection is by venous blood draw at a clinic or a nurse home visit only, with no at-home option, and results take around ten days, both of which weigh on its collection convenience score.
Where the test does better is on documentation, with a short but clear description, the biomarker, sample type and turnaround all stated. Blue Horizon's Trustpilot rating and UKAS ISO 15189 partner labs support its trust signals score, and a doctor's review is an add-on at checkout rather than included by default.
This test could suit you if you have a specific reason to check your vitamin B6 level, for example under the guidance of a nutritionist or clinician, rather than wanting a general vitamin screen. Because there is no at-home collection option, you will need to be able to attend a clinic or arrange a nurse home visit.
If turnaround time matters, results here take around ten days rather than being available within a day or two, so factor that into your planning. If cost is a concern, a broader vitamins profile that includes B6 alongside other markers may offer better value than testing B6 alone, depending on what else you need checked.
This is a blood test for vitamin B6. You give a venous blood sample, either by visiting a clinic or via a nurse home visit; there is no at-home collection option for this test. Once your sample reaches the laboratory, results are typically ready in around ten days. A doctor's review of your results can be added as an opt-in extra at checkout.
This is a single vitamin B6 blood test at £117.25, collected as a venous sample at a clinic or via a nurse home visit, with results back in around ten days. Blue Horizon does not place this test in a formal comparison group, but the price sits well above the typical range for vitamin tests of a similar size that we track. The main caveats are the ten-day turnaround and the lack of an at-home collection option.
