AOD 9604 Clinical Trial History: What the Research Actually Shows Six Phase I and Phase II clinical trials were conducted by Metabolic Pharmaceuticals Ltd., enrolling approximately 900 participants in total
The study used databases at the Toronto-based Institute for Clinical Evaluative Sciences to review the patient records of 146,850 residents of the province aged 65 or over who were prescribed regular vitamin B12 shot between January 2011 and October 2015
Vitamin B12 injections are usually given intramuscularly, meaning they are injected directly into a muscle
At a medical spa, every injection is performed by a licensed providersuch as a nurse or nurse practitionerusing medical-grade supplies in a controlled environment
Hempill-Bryant explains that babies born to B12 deficient mothers will also be deficient in B12, especially if they are then exclusively breastfed. A study in the Journal of Child Neurology found that the most severe cases of B12 deficiency can lead to weakness, failure to thrive, afebrile seizure, developmental delay, nystagmus, tremors, and involuntary movement among young babies
Vitamin B12 injections are generally considered safe and well-tolerated, with minimal side effects
