Question:
Is vitamin B-12, in sub-lingual form, just as good as the other types?

Sublingual is more easily absorbed. I still had trouble so I had to go to the shots.

Sublingual is better than oral becasue it is absorbed better.

From what I understand, the best absorption is B-12 shots intramuscularly (IM), followed by B-12 shots subcutaneously (SQ) with the sublingual form last out of those three...JR

My surgeon has all his patients take sublingual B12 for preventative purposes. The dosage, unless your levels are low, is once weekly.

I take B-12 sublingual daily. I was taking the regular tablet but found it does not dissolve and get absorbed quick enough. Besides, the sublingual is fruity tasting and dissolves within a minute which means it's one less pill to swallow....YIPPEEEE! As for B-12 shots, I wouldn't take on that expense unless it is necessary. If we can prevent the need for them by taking other forms of it, why not? Please keep in mind that if I needed to have injections, I'd do it in a heartbeat. Best wishes!!!
