Frequently asked questions
What is Damlin 1500 Injection?
Damlin 1500 Injection contains vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 is an essential nutrient required for the body to make red blood cells and maintain a healthy nervous system. It also plays a role in releasing energy from food and using vitamin B11 (folate).
Why can’t I get sufficient vitamin B12 in my diet?
You can obtain vitamin B12 from sources like meat, fish, eggs, and dairy products. Individuals who are vegetarian or vegan may not readily get vitamin B12 as it is not naturally found in plant-based foods such as fruits, vegetables, and grains. As a result, vegetarians or vegans might experience a deficiency of vitamin B12.
What happens if I have vitamin B12 deficiency?
Vitamin B12 deficiency can lead to tiredness, weakness, constipation, loss of appetite, weight loss, and megaloblastic anemia (an increase in red blood cell size). It may also cause nerve problems such as numbness and tingling in the hands and feet. Other potential symptoms include balance issues, depression, confusion, dementia, poor memory, and soreness in the mouth or tongue.
Is Damlin 1500 Injection safe?
Damlin 1500 Injection is generally well-tolerated and considered safe. However, some individuals may experience rare side effects such as nausea, diarrhea, anorexia, and rash. If you experience a rash, stop taking the medication and consult a healthcare professional immediately.
How should Damlin 1500 Injection be given?
Damlin 1500 Injection can be administered intravenously or intramuscularly. The typical dose is 1 ampoule (0.5 mg of Damlin 1500 Injection) and is given three times a week. After two months, a single 0.5 mg ampoule should be administered every one to three months for maintenance therapy.
What precautions need to be taken when administering Damlin 1500 Injection?
