Yes, my bottle has sucralose, and mannitol in it.

The Puritan's Pride bottle I have does not... it has mannitol listed.

I don't seem to react negatively to sucralose. But I don't consume much or any significant amount of it daily.

Most B12's are still made for sublingual use...so have a flavoring in them or sweetening agent.
Jarrow does not have sucralose either:

This is available in iherb.com and Amazon.

I just bought "SuperiorSource" No shot Methylcobalamin B12 1000mcg sublingual. They are called MicroLingual as they are small. If you're not lactose intolerant I believe it's a good find. The additives are Lactose and acacia gum. It's available at iHerb.com and many other places. Amazon only has the one that includes Folic Acid and it includes more additives as well.

Mannitol is brutal on my system, I might as well take an EX-LAX.

I have a Jarrow B-12 5000mcg I take but i break it into 4. And just take 1/4th a day because I don't have a deficiency. I have seen a lot of places say that even the 5000 is perfectly safe and others say it could be a bit much and you could see a blood pressure drop from that much. My blood pressure is always in the lower (optimal)end of normal. Don't wanna start getting into low BP issues. I could get there easily.

I have also seen some places say that the body isn't able to ingest the entire dose in the B-12 supplement.

Any thoughts?

The second column is a list of absorption of oral in patients with PA (pernicious anemia). They have broken intrinsic factor --which will allow small amounts of B12 to be absorbed in the intestine. Notice that small B12 doses are not well absorbed by PA patients.

In normal patients 1000mcg gives 13mcg absorbed. In PA patients, 12mcg. This illustrates the passive absorption ceiling so to speak.

I am trying Nerve Support Formula purchased on Amazon. Results are rather modest thus far. They recommend 2 pills twice a day with meals and if no results go with 2 pills 3 times a day. When you do start feeling improvement you can lessen dosage but say you may need to use 2-3 bottles before you may notice improvement.
They have sent me 2 letters thus far with directions on usage and also asking for feedback or any questions I may have. Seems a legit company and say their product is safe because they basically B vitamins.
I have been on this product only for a short period of time but feel it is helping me ever so slightly.
This product is not the Neuropathy Support formula which is the original thread topic. I have discovered this most recently and decided to try it, 120 capsules for $40 by RHP short realhealthproducts.com.
i will keep everyone posted.

I have answered this on the other thread.

The bottom line is to take on an empty stomach, if you want benefits from the B12.
