QUERY REGARDING B12 TEST

2020-10-30 20:07:49
The serum B12 test which we undergo in labs is used to check cyanocobalamin levels or methylcobalamin levels ? Can methylcobalamin containing medicines increase serum B12 levels or only cyanocobalamin containing medicines increase vit B12 levels in blood ?
