Frequently asked questions
What is L Coba 2500mcg Injection?
L Coba 2500mcg Injection is a form of vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 is an essential nutrient that the body needs 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 (folic acid).
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. People who follow a vegetarian or vegan diet may not consume enough vitamin B12 as it is not naturally found in plant-based foods such as fruits, vegetables, and grains. Therefore, vitamin B12 deficiency is more common in vegetarians and vegans.
What happens if I have vitamin B12 deficiency?
Vitamin B12 deficiency can cause tiredness, weakness, constipation, loss of appetite, weight loss, and megaloblastic anemia (a condition where red blood cells are larger than normal).
