Default Questions on B12 Injections
I am thinking of ordering B12 from All Day Chemist when I place a new hcg order. What they have is this:
Generic Name: Vit B1 100 mg, Vit B6 50 mg, Vit B12 1000 mcg, D-Pantehnol 50 mg
US. Brand : B12 Injection
Manufacturer:
Strength: 2 ml Package: 8 Ampoules

Has anyone ordered this from them and what are the results you got? More energy is what I am looking for. I also saw on an older post that someone recommended globaldrugsdirect.com and thye have is this:
Vitamin B12 Injection 30ml Vial Sandoz 1000 mcg/ml 1 $29.00

I am not sure what I am looking for. And as I understand it, I can do deep subq for these. Any help would be appreciated. I am tired of being tired.

I use it every week. It does help but I will warn you that the injection hurts like heck. It really doesn't have two full mls. I have yet two fill up two 1ml syringes. I inject one and place the other in the fridge for the next week. As a matter of fact, I have a big bruise on my hip from my shot on thurs. If you don't mind the bruise, the benefit is good. I can tell the difference when I don't have them. Ok, I'm rambling but you get my point

firedudette ... we just bought some from ADC. I haven't used mine yet. I am saving it for my R2P2. One of the other gals that bought it with me is using it now. Maybe she will chime in. Do a search for B12.

The ones you get from adc are snap off ampules. It was very simple to snap though. T is right it hurts to shoot up. I'm wondering if we can just add it to out hcg and it would work that way and maybe not hurt so much.
Maybe one of the nurses reading this might have a way that it doesn't burn

I've taken B12 injections for over ten years and I can't even feel them. I use insulin needles and my levels have stayed way high like the doctor wants them. How are you injecting that they are so painful? I usually put the shot in my thigh but it doesn't hurt, just a little stick like our hcg.

I add mine to my hCG. I take basically .1 every day instead of one shot a week. It's worked really well. My Endo recommended it.

I have one syringe that I use to put the air in, then I take my hcg filled syringe and add .1 to it. It's never hurt.

It could be the needle you are using. I use either a 30 or a 27 gauge needle. The 30 gauge takes a little longer to inject but it doesn't hurt

Does anyone have an idea on Dosage? I have ampules of 1000mcgs each that I ordered from drugdelivery.ca. I hear the results with it are amazing, but I dont know how much or how often to inject.

Two , while I'm the one both of you are referring to, Jesse was ordering and I went ahead and bought through her. I appreciate both of you very much!

I injected 1 ml. last week and felt super for the first day or so, then nothing. And I injected SQ just as I would my hcg. It didn't hurt at all. I saved the other half from the vial for this week. However, I went to my dr. Monday for this horrible aching in my right shoulder and was talking to her about the b-12 shot. (Her clinic also does the hcg protocol, so she is totally supportive of me and is happy to give me any help even though I'm doing it myself and not thru the clinic. I SO love that lady!!!) She said you can't OD on b-12 and that I can inject every 3-4 days if I want. However, if I do that regularly, even though I may not be able to tell that I'm "up", I sure will when I stop! lol So, I injected again yesterday and am feeling great! I will probably inject every 3-4 days. I'm so sorry others have had painful injections.

I inject daily because I need it. If you break down the amount you are taking into 1 week, put that amount into your syringe with the hcg you will have consistent B12 in your system.

I have to admit that I am extremely surprised that you all are shooting subq. I was specifically told it has to be IM. Would be interested in hearing why your doctor's permit it subq.

Jenni, I didn't know there were b12 patches. And Colleen said in another thread that she has done Subq and her levels test great. I have always been given them IM so that is why I have all these questions. Hoping some nurses chime in soon. I want to order and I am so exhausted so the sooner the better.
Thanks for all your responses.

ADC's prices seem to be real reasonable - $4 for 8 - 2ml ampoules, so at 1ml injections once a week that would be $8 a month. Does anyone know of a better price? I'm thinking of adding a bunch of B-12 to my next hCG order.

I just looked at drugdelivery.ca and they have two types.
VITAMIN B12 INJECTABLE 1000MCG/ML (X1 ML) and
VITAMIN B12 INJECTABLE 100MCG/ML (X 3ML)
Can someone explain to me what this means. I think you would take 1 ML per injection and the X3 means there are 3 ML in each vial. But now I am confused because of the 1000 mcg vs the 100 mcg
Thanks everyone.

You know, I went searching and apparently it's fine to do subq. Many places offer it. That's the first I had ever heard of it.

If you do a search for b12 patches, apparently there are quite a few places that sell them. I had never heard of them til now. It's a tiny patch you put behind your ear a couple of times a week.

My blood levels were in the toilet before I started the B12. I've done SQ for over 10 years and they are sky high now so I know sq works just fine. :-) New research even says the pills work just as well now because of the high doses they use, and that actually, the blood levels stay more constant.
