To decide whether B12 injections are right for you, you and your provider will discuss any symptoms you’ve been experiencing lately, such as fatigue, digestive issues, headaches, and shortness of breath.

A B12 injection appointment takes as little as 15 minutes! Your provider will clean the injection site and then administer the B12 injection. You can hop right back into your normal routine immediately afterward.

Still have questions?
When you take a pill, your digestive system must absorb the nutrients before sending them to your body’s tissues. Not all the nutrients will make it. By delivering B12 straight to your blood, injections ensure your body receives the full dose.
Similarly, some patients may have digestive issues that prevent them from absorbing enough B12 from their food. Injections bypass the gastrointestinal system and, with it, any potential digestive obstacles.
Many people can benefit from B12 injections! Whether you want to resolve a deficiency or just want to boost your everyday well-being, B12 injections offer a wide range of advantages.
People at a higher risk of B12 deficiencies include older adults, people who suffer from gastrointestinal disorders or have had gastrointestinal surgeries, and anyone who adheres to a vegan or vegetarian diet.
It’s up to you! Many patients can feel an improvement after just one injection. If you have a B12 deficiency, you may need several weeks of injections to feel the benefits.
We typically recommend a weekly B12 injection at first for optimal results, but your provider can offer you personalized guidance according to your needs and lifestyle.
