Is 5000mcg b12 to much for a daily dose?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: A person needs less than 5 microgram of B12 a day. if you are deficient and can not absorb B12 in your intestine talk to your doctor about sub-lingual B12 or injection. You would not nee injection any more than once a month.
