Frequently Asked Questions
• Vitamin B12 injections are often prescribed for individuals who have a vitamin B12 deficiency.
• If you have certain medical conditions like pernicious anemia or a gastrointestinal disorder, are taking certain medications that interfere with your body’s ability to absorb vitamin B12, or eat a vegan or vegetarian diet, you are more likely to have a vitamin B12 deficiency and require regular injections.
• If you are experiencing symptoms that could be related to vitamin B12 deficiency, such as: fatigue, weakness, pale skin, and/ or numbness in your fingers and toes, you might also want to try a vitamin B12 injection to see if it relieves your symptoms.
The duration of effect varies. For some individuals, benefits last for several weeks, while others might require more frequent injections for sustained improvement.
• Vitamin B12 injections are considered generally safe and do not usually have side effects, however, sometimes there can be irritation, bleeding, and/ or bruising of the skin at the injection site.
• Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin, meaning any excess amount that your body doesn’t need is excreted into the urine, so there is very little risk of toxicity.
The frequency of injections varies from person to person and depends on the severity of symptoms and deficiency. Typically, injections are administered once a week for 6-8 weeks, followed by a maintenance injection every 1-3 months.
