AnnotationLetter responding to article 'Vitamin B-12 deficiency' by Ben Hudson (BMJ 2010;340:c2305), who focused primarily in pernicious anaemia as the most likely cause of vitamin B-12 deficiency in older people. Schneede suggests that patients with malabsorption of vitamin B-12 in food respond to oral vitamin B-12 treatment. (RH).
