Frequently asked questions

Is this a tablet or a softgel?

It is a softgel, meant to be swallowed rather than chewed or dissolved, which sets it apart from many of the tablets and lozenges also sold in this category.

How long does one bottle last?

The label describes the 60-count bottle as a 60-day supply at one softgel per day.

Why is 5,000 mcg labeled Maximum Strength?

Nature Made uses that label to mark this as its highest-potency B12 softgel, well above its own 500 to 1,000 mcg options. This is a labeling fact, not a dosage recommendation, so speak with a healthcare professional about what amount may suit you.
