Cyanocobalamin 500mcg/mL (Vitamin B12), 30mL Injection
SKU GME581Product Introduction
Cyanocobalamin injection replaces vitamin B12 in deficiency, particularly when poor intestinal absorption makes oral replacement unsuitable. It supports normal red-cell production and addresses B12-related neurological injury.
How to use
A clinician gives the injection by the intramuscular or subcutaneous route suitable for the formulation. Initial replacement and maintenance schedules differ according to the cause and severity of deficiency.
How it works
Vitamin B12 is a cofactor for DNA synthesis and myelin-related metabolism; replacement corrects impaired blood-cell formation and deficiency-related nerve dysfunction.
Side effects
Injection-site discomfort, mild diarrhoea, itching or rash may occur; serious hypersensitivity is rare.
Important information
Tell the injection team about cobalt allergy or Leber hereditary optic neuropathy. Severe anaemia may require early potassium and blood-count monitoring as marrow activity recovers.
Uses
- Vitamin B12 deficiency
- B12-deficiency megaloblastic anaemia
- neurological manifestations of B12 deficiency
Benefits
Restores B12 stores and supports recovery of blood counts; long-standing nerve damage may recover incompletely.
Will folic acid alone correct B12 deficiency?
It may improve anaemia while neurological injury continues, so B12 deficiency must be assessed separately.
Why might injections be needed long term?
Pernicious anaemia or permanent malabsorption may require ongoing replacement even after blood counts improve.
Will it improve energy if my B12 level is normal?
There is no established benefit from routine injections for tiredness without deficiency or another clinical indication.
How soon do blood counts improve?
A marrow response can begin within days; haemoglobin recovery and neurological improvement take longer.
Does tingling disappear immediately?
No. Nerve recovery can take months, and established damage may persist.
What allergy symptoms need emergency care?
Breathing difficulty, facial swelling or widespread hives after injection require urgent treatment.
Can medicines cause B12 deficiency?
Long-term metformin and acid-suppressing treatment can contribute; disclose these when the cause is investigated.
Should I have tests before treatment?
When clinically feasible, B12, folate and blood-count testing before replacement helps establish the diagnosis.
