A vitamin B12 injection is a shot administered directly into the muscle or under the skin that delivers a concentrated dose of vitamin B12, which is essential for red blood cell production, nerve function, and DNA synthesis.
Vitamin B12 injections are typically recommended for individuals with a vitamin B12 deficiency due to factors like poor dietary intake, absorption issues (e.g., pernicious anemia), gastrointestinal disorders, or certain medical conditions.
Common symptoms of vitamin B12 deficiency include fatigue, weakness, numbness or tingling in the hands and feet, memory problems, difficulty walking, and mood changes like depression.
The frequency of injections depends on the severity of the deficiency and the underlying cause. It could range from daily or weekly for initial treatment to monthly for maintenance. Your healthcare provider will determine the appropriate schedule.
Side effects are rare but can include mild pain or redness at the injection site, nausea, diarrhea, or dizziness. Severe allergic reactions are extremely rare but require immediate medical attention.
Many people report feeling an improvement in energy and reduction of symptoms within 48 to 72 hours after the first injection, though this can vary based on individual factors.
Vitamin B12 is generally considered safe and important during pregnancy and breastfeeding. However, it’s essential to consult your healthcare provider to ensure the correct dosage and necessity of injections.
Yes, injections bypass the digestive system, making them more effective for individuals who have absorption issues or require a rapid increase in B12 levels, whereas oral supplements are suitable for those who can absorb B12 normally.
While vitamin B12 injections are often touted for boosting energy levels, they primarily benefit those with a deficiency. There’s limited evidence to support their use for weight loss in individuals with normal B12 levels.

Symptom checker
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, please book an appointment with us. Symptoms can vary from person to person and from condition to condition.A proper diagnosis can only be made through a thorough medical examination.
Our clinicians will carry out a full assessment to ensure an accurate diagnosis and appropriate care.
Are you feeling unusually tired or low in energy despite rest?
Persistent fatigue and lack of energy can be a sign of vitamin B12 deficiency. A B12 injection helps quickly restore levels and support energy production, especially when dietary intake or absorption is low.
Do you have numbness, tingling, or “pins and needles” in hands or feet?
These nerve‑related sensations can be linked to low B12, which affects nerve health. B12 injections support nerve function and may reduce symptoms when deficiency is diagnosed.
Are you having memory issues, mood changes, or difficulty concentrating?
Vitamin B12 is linked to brain function and mood. Low levels may contribute to memory lapses, irritability, or difficulty focusing. Targeted injections can help improve cognitive symptoms when deficiency is present.
Do you notice shortness of breath, palpitations, or feeling faint?
These can be signs of anaemia related to B12 deficiency. A clinician can assess your symptoms and, if needed, administer B12 injections to support red blood cell production.
Have blood tests shown low B12 levels or anaemia?
Confirmed deficiency on blood testing is the key reason for treatment. B12 injections are often recommended when levels are low or oral supplementation isn’t effective.
Do you have digestive issues or absorption problems?
Conditions like pernicious anaemia, IBS, or gastric surgery can impair B12 absorption. Injections bypass the gut to deliver B12 directly into the bloodstream for better correction.
