Assunto:  vitamin B or B vitamin?
 
Mensagem:  Just a little detail, you won't find Vitamin "B" alone in stores, because the B vitamins are eight water-soluble vitamins. (wikipedia)

 Historically, the B vitamins were once thought to be a single vitamin, referred to as vitamin B. (wikipedia)

Supplements containing all eight are generally referred to as a vitamin B complex. Individual B vitamin supplements are referred to by the specific name of each vitamin (e.g. vitamin B6, vitamin B12).
