Vitamin B12 Injection

Feeling tired, run down, or struggling with low energy? Vitamin B12 plays a vital role in keeping your nerves and blood cells healthy—but if your levels are low, you might experience fatigue, weakness, or even brain fog.

    • Vegans & vegetarians – B12 is mainly found in animal products.

    • Low dietary intake – Not eating enough meat, fish, eggs, or dairy.

    • Absorption issues – Conditions like pernicious anaemia can prevent proper absorption.

  • Deficiency in vitamin B12 can lead to various health issues, such as anemia, low energy levels, gastrointestinal discomfort (like constipation, loss of appetite, and weight loss), impaired memory, and nerve damage.

    • Given as a quick intramuscular injection every 2-3 months.

    • Alternative: High-dose oral B12 (1000mcg daily) for ongoing maintenance.

    • A proper diagnosis of B12 deficiency from a doctor is essential before treatment.

  • A blood test with your GP can determine vitamin B12 levels in the body, and if deficiency is confirmed, your doctor may prescribe a treatment such as hydroxocobalamin injections.

  • After receiving a vitamin B12 injection, it's essential to wait at the pharmacy for 10 minutes to monitor for rare severe allergic reactions.
