Frequently asked questions
What is Fibocob 1500mcg Injection?
Fibocob 1500mcg Injection contains vitamin B12, an essential nutrient that supports red blood cell production and maintains a healthy nervous system. It also plays a role in energy release and utilization of vitamin B11 (folic acid).
Why might I have difficulty getting enough Vitamin B12 from my diet?
Vitamin B12 is often found naturally in meat, fish, eggs, and dairy products. However, individuals who follow a vegetarian or vegan diet may face challenges obtaining sufficient vitamin B12 as it isn't present in plant-based foods like fruits, vegetables, and grains. Therefore, it might become necessary to incorporate supplemental sources of Vitamin B12.
What happens if I have vitamin B12 deficiency?
Vitamin B12 deficiency can lead to various symptoms including fatigue, weakness, constipation, loss of appetite, weight loss, and megaloblastic anemia (an increase in the size of red blood cells). It may also result in nerve issues such as numbness or tingling in hands and feet. Other potential signs include difficulties with balance, depression, confusion, dementia, impaired memory, and soreness in the mouth or tongue.
