AM I SUITABLE TO HAVE A VITAMIN B12 SHOT?

Vitamin B12 deficiency is known to be common in adults, for patients experiencing any of the symptoms mentioned above the chances are you may be deficient or could benefit from a top-up. Supplementing Vitamin B12 with injections is considered safe in most cases, however all our patients will go through a consultation with Dr Choudry and her team to advise you on an individual basis prior to any treatment.

HOW OFTEN CAN I HAVE A VITAMIN B12 SHOT?

Patients with moderate to low deficiency may benefit from a course of Vitamin B12 injections administered monthly for 3-4 months and then 6 monthly thereafter as a maintenance dose. However patients with a high to moderate deficiency may benefit from a course of weekly Vitamin B12 injections administered for 4-5 weeks and then 4 monthly thereafter as a maintenance dose. Patients will have a consultation with Dr Choudry and her team to advise you on an individual basis prior to any treatment.

Understanding Vitamin B12 Deficiency and Injection Treatment Options

Some individuals are unable to absorb sufficient Vitamin B12 through the stomach due to underlying medical factors, while others may develop a deficiency that can lead to anaemia. Vitamin B12 injections provide a direct method of administration and are commonly used where deficiency has been clinically identified.

In the UK, the most widely used injectable form of Vitamin B12 is hydroxocobalamin. Oral Vitamin B12 supplements such as cyanocobalamin tablets are available over the counter; however, in certain cases injections may be recommended following medical assessment.
