Vitamin B12 Injections

Vitamin B12 boosts your body to use fat and carbohydrates for energy and make new proteins. In addition, it is important for normal blood, DNA, metabolism, cell growth, and nerves. You can get enough vitamin B12 in your diet, but a deficiency may occur if you have certain health conditions like stomach or intestinal problems, infections, cancers, or poor nutrition. A serious vitamin B12 deficiency may result in anemia, stomach problems, and nerve damage.

Vitamin B12 is given by injection into a muscle or under the skin. Dosage is based on your medical condition and response to the treatments. Injections can be once a month maximum, but if you have certain medical conditions like pernicious anemia, discuss injection frequency with your provider.
