Does the B-12 patch work? Has anyone used it? How does it compare to the sublingual?

I don't have info on the patch, but my doctor has me on the once a month B-12 shot. It's quick, easy, and I set a reminder in my phone.

It didn't work for me. My B12 dropped a lot while using the patch.

I give myself a B12 injection each month. Pretty easy to do - they taught me in the hospital - and it's not very expensive either.

I've only tried the Superior Source Sublingual B12 and my levels were super high in my last labs. It melts instantly and is absorbed in the mouth and therefore bypasses our altered anatomy (like sugar does).
