B6 supposedly has a half life of 33 days. I find that very hard to believe. It is commonly found in doses of 100 mg (5882% DV). That means that, with just one pill, after 33 days you will have 50 mg (2941%), after 66 days 25 mg (1470%), after 99 days 12.5 mg (735%) and so on. At that rate with just one bottle you will have enough b6 in your body for the rest of your life.

If you search for half life of B6, you will get 23 to 33 days. It is water soluble so excess B6 can be eliminated through urination. Most government health agencies consider 50 mg per day as the max amount to be taken safely, though some consider 25 mg or less to be safe.

33 days - from Google
100 mg doses - That's the dose I commonly see at stores. Search B6 on amazon and you will see most of the results will be 100 mg. To my surprise there are several brands at 500 mg (29412% DV) per pill.
The other numbers - Using the definition of half life.
