Altman B12 Plus - 150 Tablets - A Vitamin B12 Supplement for Sublingual Absorption

Altman B12 Plus is a Vitamin B12 supplement made as a cherry-flavored sucking tablet, designed to dissolve under the tongue instead of being swallowed. Each tablet provides 1200 mcg of Vitamin B12 (as cyanocobalamin) and 400 mcg of folic acid, and you don't need water to take it.

How It Works

Placed under the tongue, the tablet dissolves slowly and is absorbed through the mucous membranes there so that the nutrients can reach the bloodstream without first passing through the digestive system. This delivery method differs from typical B12 powder forms, which are usually mixed into water or a drink.

What Each Tablet Provides

Vitamin B12 supports normal red blood cell formation and nervous system function, and folic acid plays a role in cell division. The tablets are vegan and gluten-free, sweetened with sorbitol, mannitol, and dextrose, and flavored with cherry.

Who It's For

Vitamin B12 is found mainly in animal products, so vegetarians and vegans often look for Vitamin B12 tablets to help fill the gap. It also suits anyone who would rather take a sucking tablet than a capsule or B12 powder.

How to Use

Suck one tablet daily under the tongue until it dissolves completely; do not swallow it whole. Store the tablets tightly closed in a cool, dry place, out of the reach of children.

Safety Notes

If you are pregnant, nursing, taking prescription medication, or considering this for a child, check with a doctor first. Each pack contains 150 tablets and is kosher parve under Rabbinate supervision.

Looking for a Different B12 Format?

For a smaller pack, the Altman B12 Plus 120 Tablets carries the same cherry-flavored formula. If you'd rather take Vitamin B12 without folic acid, the Altman Vitamin B12 without Folic Acid is a 100-tablet alternative.
