i read this in the 2nd link posted by jcc....i guess i should be taking a higher level of vit b12 then...most daily vit b supplements dont add this amount into the tabs...???"Although the daily requirement of vitamin B12 is approximately 2 mcg, the initial oral replacement dosage consists of a single daily dose of 1,000 to 2,000 mcg (Table 4). This high dose is required because of the variable absorption of oral vitamin B12 in doses of 500 mcg or less.19 This regimen has been shown to be safe, costeffective, and well tolerated by patients."

If they were in sublingual form, they might be adequate, but I'm not aware of any multivitamins that are available in sublingual form.
