Key takeaways

  • Vitamin B complex is a year-round dispensing staple in Nigerian pharmacies, PPMVs and clinics — cheap per tablet, dispensed constantly.
  • It is usually stocked in the bulk 1,000-tablet cup format, which is far cheaper per tablet than retail packs.
  • Like other supplements, the price tracks the naira, because active ingredients and packaging are largely imported.
  • Any printed figure is indicative only — confirm the current carton price before ordering.

The short answer

Vitamin B complex is one of the most routinely dispensed supplements in Nigeria — handed across the counter for general wellbeing, convalescence, neuropathy support and appetite complaints. "Vitamin B complex price in Nigeria" is a steady search from pharmacies, PPMVs and distributors planning stock. Here is current indicative wholesale guidance for Dizpharm B-Complex (and the companion daily Multivitamin), from a NAFDAC-certified manufacturer in Delta State:

MultivitaminDaily FormulaBulk Cup (1000 tablets)48 cupsper carton~₦1,500–₦2,000per cup
Indicative wholesale guidance as of July 2026 — ex-warehouse Ibusa, excluding VAT, minimum order one full carton per SKU. Naira pricing moves with the market; confirm today's exact carton price on WhatsApp before ordering.

These are indicative wholesale figures (ex-warehouse, before VAT and before retailer margin), not the over-the-counter price — read on for how the wholesale figure becomes the shelf price.

Wholesale vs retail: why the shelf price is higher

Like every medicine and supplement, B complex passes through a margin chain on its way to the customer:

  • Manufacturer sells by the carton at trade pricing (the indicative figures above).
  • Distributor / wholesaler adds a margin and breaks bulk for retailers.
  • Pharmacy or PPMV adds the retail margin and sells to the public — often dispensing from the bulk cup by count.

Because B complex is inexpensive per tablet, the absolute naira margin per sale is small — the business case is steady volume. We break the chain down in our guide to pharma trade margins in Nigeria.

Why B complex sells steadily

Three demand streams keep B complex moving all year:

  • General wellbeing and convalescence. It is one of the most-requested "tonic" lines at pharmacy and PPMV counters nationwide.
  • Clinical support. B vitamins are dispensed alongside treatment for anaemia, neuropathy and poor appetite.
  • Institutional demand. Clinics and hospital pharmacies dispense B complex in volume, which is why the 1,000-tablet cup is the standard trade format.

That steady pull makes it a dependable low-cost anchor in a distributor's range — see the fastest-moving pharmaceutical products to distribute in Nigeria. It pairs naturally with folic acid as a vitamins range.

What drives the B complex price

  • The naira. Vitamins (the active ingredients) and packaging are largely imported, so the exchange rate is the main cost driver.
  • Format. The bulk 1,000-tablet cup is much cheaper per tablet than retail blister packs.
  • Order volume. Trade pricing improves as cartons per order rise.
  • Region. Freight from the Ibusa, Delta State plant adds to landed cost with distance.

How to buy B complex at manufacturer pricing

Frequently asked questions

How much is vitamin B complex in Nigeria?
It depends on format and the current naira rate. As indicative wholesale guidance from a manufacturer, a bulk 1,000-tablet cup of B complex is in the low thousands of naira ex-warehouse, before distributor and retailer margins — the per-tablet retail price at a pharmacy counter is higher. Confirm the current figure before ordering, as input costs track the exchange rate.
How much is a carton of B complex from the manufacturer?
A carton holds 48 bulk cups of 1,000 tablets each, and the price moves with the naira and order volume. Dizpharm quotes the current carton price on WhatsApp; minimum order is one carton and trade rates improve with volume.
Is vitamin B complex the same as a multivitamin?
No. B complex contains the group of B vitamins (such as B1, B2, B3, B6, B12); a multivitamin combines vitamins across groups (A, B, C, D and others), often with minerals. Pharmacies typically stock both — B complex for B-vitamin support, a daily multivitamin for general supplementation.
Why does the B complex price keep changing?
The vitamin actives and the packaging are largely imported, so the naira exchange rate is the dominant driver of trade-price changes. Treat any printed figure as indicative and confirm the current price before ordering.
