| Description | The duration of methormin use and the daily dose play a major role in the development of a possible vitamin B12 deficiency. Similarly, age should always be taken into account as another potential risk factor. Our results led to a change in established clinical practice in our clinic. For patients treated with metformin, we now check vitamin B12 levels at least once a year, and this is also our "THM". |
