A member asked:
My vitamin b12 is 141 pg/ml so my doctor wanted me to take 1000 ug under the tongue everyday. ive been feeling quite nauseous with this dose (only on day 3)- is this usual?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nausea can be a side effect of supplemental vitamins. You should probably take the vitamin with plenty of fluids. Your doctor should follow B12 levels to be certain you are absorbing the vitamin supplement. Best of luck to you!
