The Prevalence of Vitamin B12 Deficiency in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes: A Cross-Sectional Study
Journal of the American Board of Family Medicine, 09/10/09
Pflipsen MC et al. – These results found a 22% prevalence of metabolically confirmed B12 deficiency in the primary care type 2 diabetic population. Although further research needs to be performed to determine the clinical implications of these findings, B12 deficiency should be considered in type 2 diabetic patients, especially those taking metformin. Furthermore, a daily multivitamin may protect against B12 deficiency.
