Never have been checked for deficiency, just twice. Once in hospital when it was extremely low. Considering how good I feel when I've had a lozenge, there must be a deficiency going on. The last time I was tested, it wasn't even that high (around 750), despite weekly doses of 5000 microgram. The methyl-B12 is better absorbed by the body regardless of the administration. This is a sublingual lozenge that you suck on and the B12 then gets absorbed through the saliva into the small bloodvessels of the cheek and gets directly into the bloodstream. It's very similar to receiving shots of B12.
