I'd like to know if any of you take sublingual B12 and if so, what dosage.   My doc didn't tell me to take it, but I got some 500 mcg. at Wal Mart and have been taking it because it gives me more energy.

Can a person take too much???

Help,
Pat R.

pat;i take the sublinguals from walmart- and i take about 10 of them-(makes that 5000mcg )but i don't take every single day- i used to take GNC brand but the walmart's are less expensive-unfortunately a lower dosage...so not really sure i am saving money!!!

this is not per dr orders "so don't quote me"

you cannot od on B12-whatever your body doesn't need you pee out...

I get up every morning determined to both change the world and have one hell of a good time. Sometimes this makes planning my day difficult.

I take the Wal-mart sub-lingual B12 too.  The Nut did just tell me that you will just pee out the extra.  I'm only taking one a day but, I'm just a bander.

Hi Pat,

You can't take too much B-12. What your body doesn't need you eleminate. The more you need B-12, ie. the lower your leve is, the more of a "boost" you'll get when you take it.

I take 1,000 mg twice a day, every day.

I've been taking Walmart sublingual (two 500 mg) every morning.  Not sure if I can tell a difference, but I've got my routine down with it.

  I'm over a year out...my doc gives me B 12 shots 2x a month, but I also take the sublinguals..2500 mcg..twice a day.  My B12 is ok for now..but it has run low before so they have me over doing it.

  I buy mine at Walmart too!!
