My blood report shows B12 as 63 indicating deficiency and vitamin D as 11.1 indicating insufficiency. I am a pure vegetarian. Is Supradyn okay for this and do I need to take B12 injections as a supplement?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
These are quite low levels. Supradyn alone may not be sufficient. B12 injections are usually needed for quicker recovery. Vitamin D3 60k IU weekly for 8 weeks is often prescribed. Repeat B12 and Vit D after 2 months
Dr. Hema Suggests...
Take a Vitamin B12 Test Test or Take a Vitamin D (1,25 Dihydroxy Cholecalciferol) Test

Hello Sir/Madam, I have been feeling lightheaded, so my doctor suggested checking my vitamin levels. My blood report shows Vitamin B12 at 172 ng and Vitamin D at 6. The doctor prescribed Neurobion Forte for 10 days and Meconerve Plus for 15 days. I am experiencing daily nausea, lightheadedness, and headache. I want to know if my Vitamin B12 level will increase with this treatment and whether I should stop taking Meconerve Plus, as it is causing me significant discomfort.
