Consuming Vitamin B12 (multi vitamin)

2020-03-14 15:39:06
I have been diagnosed with very low levels vitamin B12 and Vitamin D. I have been prescribed with multi vitamin tablet for 3 months to increase my B12 level. In the pack, it's written Methylparaben IP and Propylparaben IP as preservatives. I read from online sources that parabens are carcinogenic. Some studies have shown that breast cancer biopsy had traces of paraben. Hence should I take those tablets with risk or is it safe to consume?
