Adults only need 2.4 micrograms a day of B12, and most of us get that through foods like fish, beef, milk, eggs, and fortified breakfast cereals
An overdose of vitamin B12 through diet is hardly possible and also not known, since the required transport protein IF (intrinsic factor) and absorption via the intestinal mucosa are two major barriers
g = mcg = microgram = 1/1,000 of a milligram (mg) For food labels in the United States, in March of 2020, the Daily Value for B12 was lowered from the 1968 RDA of 6 g to the current RDA of 2.4 g
Cyanocobalamin is indicated for vitamin B12 deficiencies due to malabsorption which may be associated with the following conditions: Addisonian (pernicious) anemia Gastrointestinal pathology, dysfunction, or surgery, including gluten enteropathy or sprue, small bowel bacteria overgrowth, total or partial gastrectomy Fish tapeworm infestation Malignancy of pancreas or bowel Folic acid deficiency It may be possible to treat the underlying disease by surgical correction of anatomic lesions leading to small bowel bacterial overgrowth, expulsion of fish tapeworm, discontinuation of drugs leading to vitamin malabsorption (see PRECAUTIONS-Drug Interactions), use of a gluten-free diet in nontropical sprue, or administration of antibiotics in tropical sprue
