I'm dealing with a vitamin B12 deficiency and I'm not sure when the best time is to take my vitamin B12 capsules. Is there a specific time of day like morning or night that would be more effective, or does it not matter? I'm curious to know what you think.

I've had a cough and cold for a week now and my complete blood profile came back normal, but my ESR is 75mm. I haven't had any fever, body pain, vomiting, or diarrhea. Currently, I'm on amoxyclav and taking ascoryl syrup. Do you think I need any more medication or any other tests? I'm a bit worried.
