The term "Vitamin B-2" refers to an individual micronutrient and active ingredient—riboflavin—rather than a distinct, multi-agent therapeutic drug class.
In pharmacology and nutrition, it functions as an essential water-soluble precursor to flavin adenine dinucleotide and flavin mononucleotide, coenzymes vital for mitochondrial cellular respiration, intermediary metabolism, and oxidation-reduction reactions.
Therapeutically, it is primarily indicated for the prevention and treatment of riboflavin deficiency (ariboflavinosis) and, in specialized ophthalmic photoenhancer formulations, for corneal collagen cross-linking in progressive keratoconus.
It is also widely utilized in clinical practice as an adjunctive prophylactic therapy for migraine headaches and as an essential component of total parenteral nutrition and multivitamin supplementation regimens.
