That's pretty hard to do. Riboflavin is one of the water soluble B vitamins and has a very, very low possibility of toxicity from getting too much. Maybe in the past you have taken a multi-vitamin and noticed your urine was a brighter yellowish color in the following couple hours. Riboflavin is the vitamin primarily responsible for that. Taking more than your body needs should just pass it into the urine stream.

∙ 14y agoRiboflavin deficiency, known as ariboflavinosis, is usually accompanied by other nutrient deficiencies and may specifically lead to deficiencies of vitamin B6 and niacin. It is not known how common riboflavin deficiency is in the United States because its symptoms-which include sore throat, magenta tongue, cracks and sores on the outside of the mouth, dry and flaky skin, and dandruff-are not as severe as the other nutrient deficiencies that may accompany it. Thus, ariboflavinosis may be underdiagnosed.
