How do you treat b12 toxicity? i have been diagnosed and have all symptoms especially swelling.

B12 toxicity: Since B12 is water sluble it is very difficult to overdose, since the vitamin is not stored. You can flush the vitaminout of your system with fluids.

B12 toxicity: B 12 toxicity is rare and I have only seen it with large and frequent injections of b12. Stopping B12 should get you out of toxicity very quickly.
