NOW Foods Vitamin B-12 Cobalamin 5000mcg 60 Lozenges

NOW® Vitamin B-12 supplies 5000 mcg of vitamin B-12 as cyanocobalamin, a stable, well-studied form of B-12 in a lozenge that dissolves in the mouth for convenient absorption. Vitamin B-12 is a water-soluble vitamin that plays several essential roles: it helps convert food into cellular energy, supports the health of nerve cells and the nervous system, and is required for the formation of healthy red blood cells. Because B-12 comes mainly from animal foods, a supplement is a practical way for many people — especially older adults and those following plant-based diets — to maintain healthy levels.*

Cautions & interactions

As with any supplement, talk to your doctor before starting this product if you are pregnant or nursing, take prescription medication, or manage a health condition. Keep it out of reach of children, store it in a cool, dry place, and don't exceed the recommended serving. If you take a multivitamin or several supplements, review the combined amounts with your healthcare provider so you don't unintentionally double up on the same nutrient. B-vitamins are water-soluble and generally well tolerated; any excess is typically excreted rather than stored.
