What the Label Data Shows

B-12 5000 mcg Sublingual is cataloged in the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD) as a vitamin supplement built from 13 ingredients from Puritan's Pride, sold in lozenge form. These ingredients span 7 nutrient categories, other, vitamin, non-nutrient/non-botanical, mineral, and 3 more, reflecting a multi-component formula rather than a single-nutrient product.

Across a broader 13-ingredient formula, 13 of 13 carry no FDA reference-intake value, typical for a formula this size: larger blends tend to pull in botanicals, amino acids, and specialty compounds without an assigned Daily Value. Breadth like this isn't a red flag by itself.

Market status matters for supplement research. This product is currently listed as on-market in the DSLD, with its label first entered into the database on 2023-05-24. On-market products are currently being distributed in the United States, though the DSLD does not verify the accuracy of label claims or evaluate safety or efficacy.
