Know More about VITAMIN B12; CYANOCOBALAMIN
The Vitamin B12 Blood Test determines the quantity of vitamin B12 available in the blood. The vitamin B-12 is critical for producing red blood cells, nerve function, and assisting the brain and body to perform properly. The Vitamin B12 Blood Test is part of a physical examination to identify deficiencies that may be the cause of fatigue, weakness, numbness, memory problems, or anemia. Finding deficiencies early helps to prevent complications that may arise, and vitamin replacement is a straightforward method with an oral supplement or injection.
Process
- A lab boy cleans your arm and uses an elastic band to make your veins more visible.
- A small blood sample is taken with a quick plastic-tipped needle prick.
- The blood is sent to a lab for analysis.
When to Get Tested
Consider testing if when you feel unusually fatigued, have numbness or tingling, or if you are at risk—vegetarian/vegan, elderly, or do you have gut absorption issues.
Sample Requirements
The Vitamin B12 Blood Test is performed using a sample of blood taken from a vein most often located in your arm.
Test Preparation
Some labs may request you fast for 6-8 hours and it is best to follow the instructions from your doctor or lab specifically.
Result Interpretation
Normal B12 levels range from 200-900 pg/mL. If your vitamin B12 levels are low, treatment will be necessary. If your vitamin B12 levels are elevated you may need further assessment.
