Put 5 drops under your tongue and let it sit there for a good 30 seconds, then swallow. You don't need more than 5000mcg ED.I received and order of the Methyl B12 drops, and I'm wondering exactly how to administer them. They are a sublingual, so I as I understand it this should be under the tongue, or held in the mouth in some fashion. How long though. It appears a typical dose is 15-30 drops.
It's a dropper at 1000mcg per serving which I'm assuming is per milliliter. Still have two bottles of lozenges to go through before I can try out RUI's stuff though, so the dose being 1ml is a guess.What's the concentration of the solution?

1 serving is 1,00mcg per .5ml which is 15 drops.
Sublingual you want 5000mcg/day since the absorption rate is less than injection and that's the rough equivalence. Whatever amount of drops that comes out to.
If 1000mcg=1/2ml than do 2.5ml and if 1/2ml= 15drops than do 75drops.
Yup, this. ^^^
I am surprised you can count the drops. I just squirt away with my oral ancillaries after measuring it out haha.![]()

Thank God I don't use the drops, I went with Austin's recommendation of Jarrows formula sublingual lozenges 5000mcg methyl!!!![]()
I'll check these out. I've used NOW foods B-12 5000mcg lozenges. Wanted to try something different to see if I notice a difference, and honestly I think I do. However, if I can find a suitable lozenge replacement, I'd use it instead. At the current rate of dozing those Methyl b-12 drops will go fast. They aren't expensive, but still.
Ingot my Jarrows lozenges from Vitacost. Pretty cheap, 5000mcg/lozenge, and methyl formula not cyano.
I use Amazon prime. I live out in slightly rural desert communities, so having amazon prime is essential haha. Looks like it's 14 bucks with free shipping. About a dollar more than vitacost, but I don't have to pay the shipping. I go to amazon for everything. It usually pans out a better deal with the lack of shipping.
Nice! I think you'll enjoy the Jarrows formula. The taste is actually pretty decent compared to others I've had.
Yeah, but the little buggers take FOREVER to dissolve haha. Mmmm, cherries.![]()

I've just ordered 4 months supply of the Jarrows B12 Methyl sublingual Dre - how you finding them?
I'm not really deficient but I'm considering giving the drops a try to see if I notice anything different. I'd really like to try the injectable but I'm not sure if it's even worth it. I asked my doc last year during my physical and he was like "just get the pill form"...I'm due for another physical-may ask again just to try it.
Pill form has extremely poor bio availability. I would o for the rui sublingual drops over pills. Plus the form of b12 comes into play. Thay have the highest bioavaiable form of b12 in their sublingual drops. It makes a huge difference.
