A patch-delivery system is now available to consumers who want or need more of the vitamin B-12, an essential vitamin that plays a key role in the normal functioning of the brain and nervous system and for the formation of blood. B-12 is naturally found in meat, shellfish, milk, eggs and fortified cereals, but many people’s digestive systems do not absorb enough B-12, which can lead to vitamin B-12 deficiency. A B-12 deficiency can contribute to anemia, which can leave you feeling weak, lightheaded, depressed and tired. The B-12 patchs, made by global nutraceticals company VitaSciences, are sold as an alternative to oral supplements and shots. The company has applied for a patent on the patch and mentions on its Web site a clinical study involving six volunteers.

1,039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hours is still one of my favorite Green Day records to date. Right behind 'Insomniac' and 'Nimrod'. Very impressed, to this day, with how good these guys sounded as a band at such a tender age. Green Day 1,039/Smoothed Out Slappy Hours. AllMusic Rating.

1. Transdermal Vitamin B12 Patch

If you have an inability to absorb vitamin B12 (eg due to low stomach acid/intrinsic factor secretion) then I wouldn’t rely on transdermal patches - a sublingual lozenge or mouth spray will allow absorption through the mucous membranes of the mouth. The most reliable alternative is regular vitamin B12 injections. Hope that answers your question.

Vitamin B12 is a vital nutrient to the overall function of our body. It has several essential functions including: Production and maturation of red blood cells to allow adequate energy production. Production of the insulating fat layer around nerves. A transdermal vitamin B12 delivery patch is applied to the skin of a user for the delivery of vitamin B12 to the bloodstream of the user. The patch includes a fabric backing and a skin-adhesive polymer matrix that is attached to one side of the fabric backing. The matrix contains a vitamin B12 compound.

Each patch contains 1,000 micrograms of vitamin B-12 and is designed to be worn once a week for no more than 24 hours. The dime-sized patches are worn on the neck behind the earlobe. The patches deliver nutrients into the circulatory system by absorption through the skin. A special membrane controls the rate at which the nutrients are absorbed, allowing the active ingredient to release at a consistent rate over a period of time.

Transdermal Vitamin B12 Patch

But can that delivery system be trusted? Other patch-delivery systems have come under scrutiny lately for seeping too much of the active ingredient into the blood stream. Drug maker Johnson & Johnson has settled numerous lawsuits in both the United States and Canada over its contraceptive patch Ortho Evra. The patch was found to leak too much estrogen into the blood stream causing blood clots which led to strokes and even death in some women.
