Vitamin B12 Shots

Within 4 to 6 days of receiving a B12 injection, most people experience an increase in their energy level or stamina. Vitamin B12 is the only vitamin not easily absorbed by the stomach or intestinal tract, so an injectable form of the vitamin was developed. Common benefits reported by participants include improved sleep, reduced allergies, reduced stress and depression, improved mood, and less frequent or severe headaches. Vitamin B12 injections contribute to healthier immune systems, and is an essential B vitamin needed to form red blood cells and for proper brain and spinal cord function.

Our Vitamin B12 service offers monthly injections of Vitamin B12 at the work site or at one of our offices. The cost is $20 per shot with every 5th shot free! A minimum of ten people are required for an on-site monthly appointment, where a registered nurse will visit your facility to administer the shots. Or, you can drop into one of our convenient mid-south offices for a monthly dose of Vitamin B12!

Facts About Vitamin B12

  • Vitamin B12 shots are most effective when taken at regular intervals (usually monthly). A regular schedule to receive the injections can be customized to each individual.
  • People with chronic fatigue or anemia require monthly injections of vitamin B12 usually because the oral form is not dependable.
  • Some redness and swelling at the injection site may occur. This should start to get better within forty-eight (48) hours.
  • Sensitivity to cobalt and/or vitamin B12 is a contraindication.
  • People with chronic liver and/or kidney dysfunction should not take frequent B12 injections; therefore we ask that you please provide us with a recent copy of lab work, which reflects liver and kidney function. This lab work is usually referred to as a metabolic panel. If you have not checked your lab work recently, we will be glad to provide that service.
