In this video, Diana Bytyqi, DNP, FNP-C discusses the link between metformin use and B-12 deficiency.
Vitamin B-12 is essential in keeping our bodies nervous system and blood cells healthy. Deficient in this vitamin can lead to numerous types of symptoms, not limited to, numbness and extreme fatigue.
People on metformin for diabetes management are at higher risk for developing vitamin b-12 deficiency. Therefore, it is important to have b12 levels checked with people who have been on metformin for a long time. Normally, b12 levels should be greater than 300 pg/ml.
Other risk factors for b-12 deficiency include vegetarian diet or people who may have had gastric surgeries in the past. The best source of b-12 is found in animal products.
