Frequently asked questions
What is Cobadial Injection?
Cobadial Injection is a form of vitamin B12 that plays a crucial role in producing red blood cells and maintaining a healthy nervous system, as well as helping to release energy from food and utilize vitamin B11 (folic acid).
Why may individuals not get sufficient vitamin B12 through their diet?
People who follow a vegetarian or vegan diet may be at risk of vitamin B12 deficiency, as this essential nutrient is naturally found in animal products such as meat, fish, eggs, and dairy products.
What are the potential consequences of a vitamin B12 deficiency?
A deficiency in vitamin B12 can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, constipation, loss of appetite, weight loss, and megaloblastic anemia (a condition where red blood cells become larger than normal). It may also cause nerve problems like numbness and tingling in the hands and feet, as well as issues with balance, depression, confusion, dementia, poor memory, and soreness of the mouth or tongue.
Is Cobadial Injection safe for use?
Cobadial Injection is generally well-tolerated and considered safe. However, rare side effects may occur in some individuals, such as nausea, diarrhea, anorexia, and rash. If a rash develops, discontinue using the medicine immediately.
How should Cobadial Injection be administered?
Cobadial Injection can be given either intravenously (directly into a vein) or intramuscularly (into a muscle). The typical dose is one ampoule (0.5 mg of Cobadial Injection), which is administered three times a week for the initial two months, and then every one to three months as part of maintenance therapy.
What precautions should be taken when administering Cobadial Injection?
When injecting Cobadial Injection, avoid using the same site each time. If intense pain is experienced during injection or if blood flows back into the syringe, remove the needle and re-insert it at a different site.
