HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Quick Melt B-12 3,000 mcg by Windmill Natural Vitamins
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Full disclosure
Quick Melt B-12 contains two active ingredients: vitamin B12 and stevia leaf extract. B12 is the star here at a 3,000 microgram dose — a form your body can use right away.
Stevia leaf extract is added as a sweetener. The tablet also holds several inactive ingredients — mannitol, sorbitol, silica, and others — that help it dissolve quickly and hold its shape.
Does it work?
Strong evidence
Vitamin B12 in this product is rated effective for treating B12 deficiency and a rare inherited condition called Imerslund-Grasbeck disease. The data also rates it likely effective for cyanide poisoning and possibly effective for canker sores and postherpetic neuralgia (nerve pain after shingles).
Stevia's effectiveness for diabetes, high blood pressure, and weight loss has not been established in the data we hold — the evidence isn't strong enough to rate it either way.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Vitamin B12 is generally very safe; your body clears what it doesn't use through your urine, and there's no established upper limit. B12 is considered safe during pregnancy at recommended amounts and is important during breastfeeding at those same amounts — follow your provider's guidance.
The supplement is well tolerated by mouth, though allergic reactions such as rash are rare. Stevia in the small amounts used in food is generally recognized as safe, but high-dose stevia supplements like this one lack robust safety data, so use caution.
Common mild side effects of stevia include bloating, dizziness, headache, muscle pain, nausea, and numbness — most of these typically fade after the first week.
Meds to double-check
Moderate interaction found
Before taking this product, double-check if you're on lithium — stevia may raise its level in your blood, a moderate-severity concern. Also flag any metformin, blood pressure medications, or diabetes drugs you take, since vitamin B12 and stevia both interact with these at minor severity.
Use the search tool on this page to look up your exact medications.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.
This B-12 supplement makes sense if you're deficient in B12 or have a condition where B12 absorption is compromised — especially the quick-dissolve form if swallowing pills is tough. If you take metformin, lithium, blood pressure medication, or diabetes medication, check with your doctor or pharmacist before adding it.
Since stevia as a supplement hasn't been well studied at high doses, talk it over with your own healthcare provider to decide whether it's right for you.

Quick Melt B-12 3,000 mcg by Windmill Natural Vitamins Drug Interactions
HelloPharmacist Interaction Report
Windmill Natural Vitamins' Quick Melt B-12 3,000 mcg contains two active ingredients, and through its vitamin B12 and stevia leaf extract, it does interact with some medications.
The most serious interaction is between stevia and lithium — stevia may reduce how your body clears lithium, potentially raising its level to a point that needs watching. This is a moderate-severity concern.
Read the full breakdown — every affected drug type, severity by severity
Vitamin B12 has a minor interaction with metformin (Glucophage), a common diabetes medication. Metformin can interfere with B12 absorption in your digestive system over time, which is why people on metformin are sometimes monitored for B12 levels.
Stevia also carries minor interactions with blood pressure medications and diabetes drugs — it may theoretically increase the effect of both, raising the risk of low blood pressure (hypotension) or low blood sugar (hypoglycemia).
Before you start this supplement, use the medication checker on this page to look up your exact prescriptions. If you take any of these drug types — especially lithium — talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist first.

For each ingredient in Quick Melt B-12 3,000 mcg with known interactions, here are the types of medications they can affect. Open any type for the detail — or search your exact drug in the checker above.
Stevia Leaf Extract
Lithium
Theoretically, stevia might decrease clearance and increase levels of lithium.
Animal research suggests that stevia extracts might have diuretic activity. Theoretically, increased reabsorption of lithium along with sodium might reduce excretion and increase levels of lithium.
Antidiabetes Drugs
Theoretically, stevia might increase the risk for hypoglycemia when combined with antidiabetes drugs.
Preliminary clinical research in patients with type 2 diabetes suggests that taking a single dose of stevia extract 1000 mg reduces postprandial blood glucose levels when taken with a meal. However, other clinical research in patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes suggests that taking stevioside 250 mg three times daily does not significantly affect blood glucose levels or glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C) after three months of treatment.
Antihypertensive Drugs
Theoretically, combining stevia or stevia constituents with antihypertensive agents might increase the risk of hypotension.
Stevia extract and stevioside might lower blood pressure in patients with hypertension. However, other clinical research suggests that stevioside does not significantly lower blood pressure in patients with hypertension.
Vitamin B12
Metformin (Glucophage)
Metformin, a common medication used to manage type 2 diabetes, has been associated with lower vitamin B12 levels in some individuals. Prolonged use of metformin can interfere with the absorption of B12 in the digestive system, potentially leading to a deficiency in this essential vitamin.
