Frequently asked questions
What is Medclomin 2500mcg Injection?
Medclomin 2500mcg Injection is a form of vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 plays a vital role in red blood cell production and maintaining a healthy nervous system. It also assists in energy release from food and the utilization of vitamin B11 (folic acid).
Why can’t I get sufficient vitamin B12 in my diet?
Vitamin B12 can be obtained through dietary sources like meat, fish, eggs, and dairy products. However, vegetarians or vegans may not get adequate B12 because it is not naturally found in plant-based foods such as fruits, vegetables, and grains. Consequently, vitamin B12 deficiency is more commonly observed in these groups.
What happens if I have a vitamin B12 deficiency?
Vitamin B12 deficiency can lead to symptoms like fatigue, weakness, constipation, decreased appetite, weight loss, and megaloblastic anemia (an abnormal development of red blood cells). It may also cause nerve problems such as numbness and tingling in the hands and feet. Other possible symptoms include balance issues, depression, confusion, dementia, impaired memory, and soreness of the mouth or tongue.
