Vitamin B12 Injection

Vitamin B12 is a nutrient that helps to keep your nerves and blood cells healthy. Our bodies don’t make Vitamin B12, which is obtained from foods such as meat, fish, milk and eggs. You may have a deficiency if you are vegan, don’t eat enough B12-rich food, or have other health conditions that mean you cannot absorb it properly, such as pernicious anaemia.

The Vitamin B12 injection is an effective way to treat a deficiency. Only one type of vitamin B12 injection is available in the UK, known as hydroxocobalamin. Vitamin B12 tablets, also known as cyanocobalamin, can be bought over the counter from pharmacies or health stores but are not as effective as the injection.

The injection can be given every 6 months if due to a dietary deficiency or 2-3 months if the cause of your low B12 levels is pernicious anaemia. There is no need to be re-tested.
