B-12 Warnings
This medication requires careful attention to the following safety warnings to ensure proper use and minimize potential risks. Please review these points thoroughly and consult with your healthcare provider if you have any questions or concerns.
Allergic Reactions: There is a risk of allergic reactions to vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin), which can be severe and life-threatening, such as facial swelling, shock, and anaphylaxis, indicated by symptoms like difficulty breathing, choking sensation, swelling around the eyes, lips, or tongue, dizziness, or nausea. Seek immediate medical attention if any of these symptoms occur.
Leber’s Disease: Individuals with Leber's disease, a rare genetic eye condition, may experience significant eye damage when using vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin). It is not recommended for patients with this condition, and they should discuss alternative supplements with their healthcare provider.
Severe Pernicious Anemia: Patients with severe pernicious anemia should consult their healthcare provider regarding the suitability of oral vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin) supplements. Treatment may lead to serious issues such as low potassium and high platelet levels. Regular monitoring through blood tests is necessary to check potassium and platelet levels. Symptoms like headache, confusion, shortness of breath, heart palpitations, muscle weakness, cramps, or unusual bleeding should be reported to a healthcare provider immediately.
Folic Acid Deficiency: Vitamin B12 can mask anemia caused by low folic acid levels, potentially leading to undiagnosed folic acid deficiency. Healthcare providers should check folic acid levels before starting vitamin B12 (cyanocobalamin) to ensure comprehensive treatment of all nutrient deficiencies. Caution is advised when taking more than 10 mcg of vitamin B12 daily.
Please contact your healthcare provider if you have any concerns or need further clarification on these warnings.

Who should not take B12?

It is always advisable for individuals to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new supplement, especially if they have underlying health conditions or are taking other medications.
What medications cannot be taken with B12?
Certain medications can interfere with the absorption or effectiveness of vitamin B12. These include:1. Metformin: Commonly used for diabetes, it can reduce B12 absorption.2. Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs): Such as omeprazole and lansoprazole, which reduce stomach acid and can affect B12 absorption.3. H2 Receptor Antagonists: Like ranitidine and famotidine, which also reduce stomach acid.4. Chloramphenicol: An antibiotic that can interfere with the hematologic response to B12.5. Colchicine: Used for gout, it may affect B12 absorption.Patients should consult their healthcare provider for personalized advice and potential alternatives if they are taking these medications.

Can too much B12 damage kidneys?
Excessive intake of vitamin B12 is generally considered safe, as it is a water-soluble vitamin and excess amounts are typically excreted in the urine.

However, individuals with pre-existing kidney conditions should consult with a healthcare provider before taking high doses of any supplement.

Individuals should always consult with a healthcare provider before taking high doses of any supplement.
