B12 injection vs B12 supplement
Hello respected doctors,
Few months back i went through Vitamin B12 check and came to know that b12 level is
193.00 pg/ml which is below from the normal range 211-911 pg./ml.
Considering the deficiency , please suggest me whether I should take injection or supplement.
Test results:
VITAMIN B12; CYANOCOBALAMIN, SERUM
(CLIA)
193.00 pg/mL 211.00 - 911.00
Thanks in advance.

You can improve by taking vit. B12 rich foods.
If you are a vegetarian I would suggest you to take Neurobion forte 1 tab a day for one month.
