Disolvable B12??

I am still pre-op but I am getting all of my aftercare products together. What I have yet to find is disolvable B12. I would like to avoid the shots at first if possible. Does anyone know where I can find this form of B12?? Thanks! ~Sheryl

Hey Sheryl, You can try GNC or a vitamin warehouse......I dont know if there is one near you, I know they're becomming more popular now... if not you can ask the vitamin stores where you can find it or if they can order it for you. Hope I've helped.... Good Luck! Gia

I use Trivita sublingual B12. I've been using it for about a year, even though I am pre-op. It has actually helped a lot with my energy levels. I plan to continue it post-op. They have a website trivita.com, of course you need to put the www before it. These sublinguals also taste pretty good. They have 1000 mcg of B12, 400 mcg Folate, 5 mg B6, and 25 mcg of Biotin. Good luck. Debra

I got an rx from my doc's office on the first week follow up visit. It is for Foltrin--hematinic concentrate with intrinsic factor. (B12 and iron) They said I would need to take it everyday the rest of my life. Nice as it's covered by my insurance with the rx.

Patricia, is that taken sublingual or what? And do you get it at your pharmacy? TIA- Becky Jean

Becky Jean, This is a capsule. Apparently the vitamins are in a oil base as I recall the PA saying. I assume that is more easily absorbed. I trust they know what they are doing. Dr. O'Malley is one of the top surgeons in the country doing wls. He appeared on Oprah when wls was becoming "the rage" 2 years ago. He has over 2000 lap operations under his belt.

I bought dissolveable B12 in Walmart yesterday 2500 mg yesterday. My doctor has me taking them once a week. Good luck. Bonny
