Based on the search results provided, there isn't specific information about why vitamin B shouldn't be taken with Parkinson's medications.

Before starting any vitamin supplements, including vitamin B, you should always consult with your healthcare team to ensure they won't interact with your current medication regimen. While vitamin B12 may actually have beneficial effects for people with Parkinson's disease - with studies showing lower B12 levels in people with Parkinson's compared to those without - the key is proper medical supervision. Your healthcare provider can help determine the right timing and dosage of any supplements to avoid potential interactions with your Parkinson's medications.
