B-12 stuff

hey i saw some of you were talking about B-12.... doc H. put me on the OPTISOURCE program for my vitamins. i also use the sublingual ( under the tongue) B-12 "dots"...they are cherry flavored. they dissolve in no time. each dot contains 500mcg of B-12....I also take an occasional injection(cheap) of B-12 when i go to my regualr doc.....REMEMBER, you cannot take too much B-12.....its impossible...but not taking enough can lead to disaster! i get my subliguals at www.drugstore.com todd

I seem to do better with a b12 injectiion once a month. I dont think I absorb b12 very well from the pills. You are right if in doubt you cannot overdose on b12

todd, I am on the optisource and take the sublingual b-12 and my b-12 level was excellent at my checkup. Colette

Hi Todd, I am 1 week and 1 day post - op. I too am taking the Optisource, what I wanted to ask you is how much or how many mg or mcg [whatever it comes in] do you take each day? Thanks Brenda

brenda, i chew four of the optisource vit.s a day....2 in the a.m then 2 in p.m. the sublingual dots it do three times a day...just takes a few minutes for them to dissolve under my tongue. i dissolve 2 of the 500 mcg each time....but again you cant overdo the b-12....and htye are cheap cheap to buy best wishes! todd
