description [1],[2] The vitamin is involved in the proliferation, maturation, and regeneration of neural cells. Deficiency of cyanocobalamin leads to accumulation of methylmalonyl-CoA and homocysteine in the serum,[2] which are risk factors for coronary artery disease. In our country, many big cities do not have laboratory facilities to estimate serum level of total vitB12 and folic acid, so, we suggest, peripheral smear showing evidence of megaloblastic changes and symptoms of vitB12 deficiency should prompt the clinician to start treatment with parenteral vitB12 to prevent irreversible neuropsychiatric changes, however blood sample may be collected for vitB12 and folic acid estimation before that.
