Methyl B12

[Din]

Hi everyone, I’m back after very long time . My cierra is slipping and sliding ,
sit down a lot when she walks along.
but she can jump up on beds and chairs.

Can I give Zobeline or alternative Methyl B12?

PLEASE NOTE: I’m having issue to big trust issues with vets. I currently live in a small town-only one vet

I took Cierra to do blood test vet used a huge needle to take blood. Try both neck vein and hand vein. End up saying her veins are dry can not take blood. Unfortunately it was a huge needle for cat.
My question is zobaline safe to try ?

Hi
Yes it's safe
I used to give Tyler
https://www.vitacost.com/vitacost-vitamin-b-12-methylcobalamin-5000-mcg-60-capsules-5
the Vitacost brand another member told me about
Vitamin B-12 Methylcobalamin -- 5000 mcg - 100 Capsules

Same as Zobaline , but the Zobaline is so expensive as you know
This is the same thing
The only difference is the Zobaline has 200 mcgs of folic acid
So I bought the folic acid at the supermarket and crush it up and added it to the Vitacost brand
If you can't find the 200 mcg get the 400 mcg and cut it in half and crush it up and add it, some members didn't even add the folic acid and the neuropathy improved
The Vitacost brand is a capsule so just open it and pour the powder on the wet food
Has no taste, no need to crush it up, I still give it to Tyler every now and then and he has never tasted it in his food , I always add water to his food and just stir up the methyl B-12 good
I switched to the vitacost brand because the zobaline was too expensive,
Even though the vitacost brand is 5000 mcgs and the zobaline is 3000 mcgs
What they don't need they will pee out because it's water soluble.

The Zobaline is expensive for 60 pills, 30.00 some other places want 33.00
I used to use the Zobaline when I joined, then a member told me about the Vitacost brand .

It took about 2 months for Tyler to get back to walking normal, jumping on to the couch, running around
But every few weeks I did see a slight improvement
Some members didn't even add the folic acid to the vitacost brand and it still helped and the neuropathy was gone

Hi Din!
Yes, as Diane says Zobaline is safe to give. I don’t know that you can get the alternative that Diane suggested (vitacost) especially in a small country town in Australia. I would stick with ordering Zobaline from lifelink.com
