Taking b12 vitamins, any side effects to taking too many?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible but rare: In general, B12 is very safe and well-tolerated and there is little danger in taking high doses. Occasionally nausea, diarrhea and rashes have been reported. It is advised to avoid in leber's disease, a rare hereditary eye condition. More info on B12 at http://lpi.Oregonstate.Edu/infocenter/vitamins/vitaminb12/ and http://www.Nlm.Nih.Gov/medlineplus/druginfo/natural/926.Html#safety.
