9. Potential Interactions with Medications

Other than high levels, vitamin B12 can sometimes also cause issues because it interacts with other medications. This is most common with antibiotics and chemotherapy drugs.

Usually, this just results in a decrease in the effectiveness of these drugs or a drop in the absorption of B12. Consult a healthcare provider when taking any medication and a supplemental form of vitamin B12 to avoid any potential conflicts.
