維生素 B12 Vitamin B12 × 憂鬱症

對一般非缺乏族群，B12 補充對憂鬱症狀的效益缺乏顯著證據：2024 年 9 項 RCT 統合分析 (SMD = -0.01, p = 0.708) 與 2021 年 16 項 RCT 統合分析皆呈中性／無效；對 B12 缺乏者（老年人、素食者、長期 PPI/metformin 使用者、惡性貧血）矯正缺乏可顯著改善憂鬱症狀，屬可接受的臨床做法。
L5 四大共識來源（Mayo/Cleveland/Harvard/NIMH-APA）一致採 cautious：肯定缺乏者需矯正、不背書一般憂鬱症的常規補充。
整體應評為弱（C）—缺乏族群可支持但屬次族群，整體族群無顯著效益且無監管機構核可此適應症。

Effects of Vitamin B12 Supplementation on Cognitive Function, Depressive Symptoms, and Fatigue: A Systematic Review, Meta-Analysis, and Meta-Regression
結論：Across 6 of the 16 RCTs reporting depression, B12 (alone or in B-complex) had no effect on depressive symptoms (pooled SMD = -0.049, 95% CI -0.146 to 0.047, p = 0.50).
前往 PubMed Assessment of Vitamin B12 Efficacy on Cognitive Memory Function and Depressive Symptoms: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
結論：The most recent meta-analysis found B12 supplementation had an insignificant effect on depressive symptoms (SMD = -0.01, 95% CI -0.077 to 0.053, p = 0.708).
前往 PubMed Systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized placebo-controlled trials of folate and vitamin B12 for depression
結論：Folate+B12 did not reduce depressive symptom severity short-term (SMD = -0.12, 95% CI -0.45 to 0.22), but prolonged use lowered relapse (OR = 0.33, 95% CI 0.12-0.94) and onset of symptoms in at-risk groups (RR = 0.65, 95% CI 0.43-0.98).
前往 PubMed Effects of Two-Year Vitamin B12 and Folic Acid Supplementation on Depressive Symptoms and Quality of Life in Older Adults with Elevated Homocysteine Concentrations: Additional Results from the B-PROOF Study, an RCT
結論：Despite greater homocysteine lowering, daily 500 ug B12 + 400 ug folic acid for 2 years produced no between-group difference in GDS-15 depressive symptoms (only a small positive effect on one quality-of-life measure).
前往 PubMed Mental health literacy, folic acid and vitamin B12, and physical activity for the prevention of depression in older adults: randomised controlled trial
結論：Daily 400 ug folic acid + 100 ug B12 for 24 months did not reduce depressive symptoms versus placebo (F(3,856) = 0.83, p = 0.476).
前往 PubMed Vitamin B12 supplementation in treating major depressive disorder: a randomized controlled trial
結論：In B12-low-normal MDD patients given injectable B12 plus an antidepressant, 100% achieved >=20% HAM-D reduction vs 69% on antidepressant alone (p < 0.001; remained significant after baseline adjustment, p = 0.001).

Vitamin B-12 and other B vitamins play a role in making brain chemicals that affect mood and other brain functions. Low levels of vitamin B-12 and other B vitamins may be linked to depression, but more research is needed. Study results have been mixed on whether vitamin B-12 supplements can help lower the risk of depression or ease symptoms. Because B-12 and other vitamin supplements can intera… 來源↗

TW 社群（PTT prozac、Psychiatry 板）普遍認可 B12 缺乏與憂鬱、神經衰弱症狀相關，建議憂鬱患者可檢測並補充；但藥師類網友提醒台灣人實際上少見 B12 缺乏，且強調補充應與葉酸並用、必要時諮詢醫師活性 B12（甲鈷胺）與 MTHFR 基因議題。
