Hello Last month I was diagnosed with vitamin b12 defeciency level was 140,and I was having  severe peripheral nuerology symptoms too, doctor advised me to take shots for 5 days daily and then once for 6 month. And Matilda forte daily for three months. I was already taking bevon cd and zincovit. Today I tested again and result is 996 . Should I stop taking Matilda forte . Is high amount of vitamin b12 harmful,if I continue taking Matilda forte wouldn't it increase to much higher level?

Hi After taking 5 shots of Vitamin it would be sufficient enough to get your levels to normal range Taking Matilda is for the maintenance However excess of B12 would also lead to Neuropathies symptoms
Next Steps
Check B12 levels again after 3 months
