  • Bypasses digestive issues
  • Solgar — premium brand since 1947
  • 18,000+ positive reviews
  • Affordable per serving

What Could Be Better

  • Cyanocobalamin form (not methylcobalamin)
  • Must dissolve under tongue properly
  • Cherry flavor may not appeal to all
  • 1000mcg may be insufficient for deficiency

Who Is This For?

Best For

  • Older adults with B12 absorption issues
  • Vegetarians/vegans needing B12
  • Those preferring sublingual delivery

Not Ideal For

  • Those wanting methylcobalamin form
  • People who dislike sublingual tablets

Our Verdict

7.8/10 — Good

Solgar B12 Sublingual is the classic choice for B12 supplementation — the sublingual delivery is a real advantage for absorption, especially for older adults. The cyanocobalamin form is well-studied and effective for most people. If you have MTHFR variants, choose methylcobalamin instead.
