I've read p5p, its metabolite, is safer, but still, not to overdo it. On Ray Peat Forum, some people responded better to regular B6 but not to p5p, as well the opposite. They're both inexpensive, so nothing to lose by experimenting.

I'd say NOW brand. I've used many of their supplements. IMO they produce quality products.
