What Are the Benefits of a Vitamin B12 Injection?

For healthy individuals, eating a well-rounded, nutrient-rich diet should provide all the B12 their body needs.

However, some people are prone to Vitamin B12 deficiencies. For example, individuals using medications that affect Vitamin B12 absorption, vegans, pregnant or breastfeeding women, and anyone with a condition that increases the need for Vitamin B12 should speak with their doctor about getting a vitamin B12 injection.

Vitamin B12 shots can help with energy levels, brain function, boosting mood, improving metabolism, and weight loss.

Hodgson Pharmacy has numerous locations in South London that provide Vitamin B12 Injection Services for those who are suffering from deficiency or are looking to improve their overall health.

Vitamin B12 Injection Uses

Vitamin B12 is a water-soluble vitamin that plays a vital role in brain function and the production of DNA and red blood cells. Vitamin B12 deficiency left untreated can lead to pernicious anaemia or neurological problems. Low B12 in the body is also associated with chronic fatigue, weakness, and poor energy levels.

Vitamin B12 injections are the most common way to treat or prevent the B12 deficiency. The injections are doctor prescribed and administered into the muscle. You can also visit Hodgson Pharmacy for Vitamin B12 Injection Services in Bexley or at our other London locations nearest you.
