Vitamins not absorbing

Welcome, Kelseyjomo. I am so sorry your Mom has this problem.

I have two friends who supplement with a fluid type sublingual B-12 between their injections. They use Sundown Naturals Sublingual B Complex with B-12. It has the Cyanocobalamin form of B-12. It comes in a cylindrical white bottle with a measuring/dosing dropper. It is sold in many supermarkets.

I have two friends, one on injections and one not, who use sublingual B-12 lozenges. They use Vitamin World Methylcobalamin B-12 5000 mcg. microlozenges. Those are sold by Vitamin World.

To give its best effect, the B-12 needs some other substances -- they work hand-in-hand, so to speak -- necessarily together. Iron, Folate, and Potassium are needed for the B-12 to be used by the body, and those need to be maintained at good enough levels so as not to be depleted by the body's processing of the B-12. Learn the symptoms of hypokalemia, and make sure your Mom knows about them too, just in case she needs to know. Her present Potassium treatment will most likely prevent that condition.
