You will opt for taking vitamin B12 shots if your levels are too low. Below 200 pg/mL are considered for injections and medications as recommended by a doctor.

Dr. Vasanthasree Suggests...

Take a DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE SULPHATE (DHEAS) Test or Take a ALLERGY RHINITIS/ASTHMA/INHALANT PANEL - ADULT (MAXI) Test
