My latest blood report shows that I have low Vitamin B12 at 102 which should be above 211 and a high uric acid level of 9.5 which should be below 7. I need to know if I can take a Vitamin B12 tablet called Cobal 500 mcg Mecobalamin to increase my Vitamin B12 levels.

Dear Dr, B12 deficiency has been reported in the blood report. Please guide me about substitute of Inj Mobyrin 1500 mg IM as the same is not available in the vicinity.
