HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Vitamin B12 Gummies 1000 mcg Raspberry by The Vitamin Shoppe

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.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Sep 24, 2026

What’s inside

Full disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Full

Every active ingredient lists its own amount on the label.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 1 of its 1 active ingredient.
  • No proprietary blends here — you can verify the dose of every single component.

This gummy contains one active ingredient: vitamin B12 at 1000 mcg per serving. B12 is an essential vitamin your body needs for nerve function, red blood cell formation, and DNA synthesis—but can't make on its own, so you have to get it from food or supplements.

The gummy also contains inactive ingredients (tapioca syrup, sugar, invert sugar, pectin) that give it its texture and taste.

Does it work?

Strong evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Strong

Clinical evidence supports at least one of this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Energy production and nerve health.
  • We looked for evidence on: Fatigue, Peripheral neuropathy, Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy, Diabetic neuropathy, Vitamin B12 deficiency, B12 deficiency anemia — and 2 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Vitamin B12 is rated "Effective" for Vitamin B12 deficiency (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Vitamin B12 is rated "Insufficient Reliable Evidence To Rate" for Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy, Diabetic neuropathy, Fatigue, Peripheral neuropathy.

Vitamin B12 is effective for treating B12 deficiency and Imerslund-Grasbeck disease, a rare genetic condition that prevents B12 absorption. It's also likely effective for cyanide poisoning and possibly effective for canker sores and postherpetic neuralgia (a type of nerve pain).

If you're taking this for a specific condition, your doctor can tell you whether it's the right choice for you.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin B12

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 1 of the 1 matched ingredient.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 1 of 1.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 1 of 1.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

B12 is generally very well tolerated when taken by mouth. Your body removes excess B12 in your urine, so there's no established upper limit.

Serious side effects are rare—allergic reactions like rash or itching are uncommon and may be linked to a cobalt sensitivity in rare cases. B12 is considered safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding at recommended amounts; follow your provider's guidance on dosing.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Vitamin B12

Meds to double-check

Minor interactions only
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Minor only

Only Minor-severity interactions are documented for these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • 1 of the 1 matched ingredient can interact with medications — Vitamin B12.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Minor.
  • For scale: 20 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

If you take metformin (Glucophage) for diabetes, check with your doctor or pharmacist before starting this supplement—metformin can lower B12 absorption, and your provider may want to track your levels together. No other major medication interactions are documented for the ingredients we could check.

Check your own medication Run your meds through the checker above

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFully disclosed formula with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. Only minor medication interactions are documented, and safety information is well characterized.

This gummy is a straightforward B12 supplement suitable for people who need to raise their B12 levels or can't absorb it well from food. If you take metformin, let your doctor or pharmacist know you're starting this—they may want to monitor your B12 status.

Talk with your own healthcare provider about whether 1000 mcg is the right dose for your situation.
