Injecting B12 on top of a deficiency that has never been investigated can mask the underlying cause and delay a proper diagnosis, such as pernicious anaemia
How long the benefits last may depend on your individual needs, your B12 status, your metabolism, and the frequency of recommended injections
If you have questions or concerns, our nurses would be happy to address them
Those with certain health conditions may also need extra monitoring
However, increasing oral supplement doses (within safe limits) while awaiting medical review is generally considered safe, as B12 has very low toxicity and excess is excreted through the kidneys
