Frequently asked questions
What is Kyorvit-M 1500mcg Injection?
Kyorvit-M 1500mcg Injection contains vitamin B12, an essential nutrient required for the body to produce red blood cells and maintain a healthy nervous system. It also plays a role in releasing energy from food and using vitamin B11 (folic acid).
Why can I not get sufficient vitamin B12 from my diet?
You may be deficient in vitamin B12 if you don't consume enough animal-based foods like meat, fish, eggs, and dairy. Vitamin B12 is not found naturally in plant-based sources such as fruits, vegetables, and grains, which makes it important for vegetarians and vegans to pay attention to their B12 intake.
What happens if I have a vitamin B12 deficiency?
Vitamin B12 deficiency can lead to fatigue, weakness, constipation, loss of appetite, weight loss, and megaloblastic anemia (a condition in which red blood cells become larger than normal). Other symptoms include nerve problems such as numbness or tingling in the hands and feet. Additionally, individuals with this deficiency may experience problems with balance, depression, confusion, dementia, poor memory, and soreness of the mouth or tongue.
