Frequently asked questions
What is Miconiv 2500mcg Injection?
Miconiv 2500mcg Injection contains vitamin B12, an essential nutrient required by the body for red blood cell production and maintaining a healthy nervous system. It also plays a role in releasing energy from food and utilizing vitamin B11 (folate).
Why can't I get sufficient Vitamin B12 from my diet?
While the body naturally produces Vitamin B12, some people may struggle to acquire enough through their typical diets. This is especially common in vegetarians and vegans as they don't get it readily from plant-based foods like fruits, vegetables, and grains. Therefore, supplementation with Vitamin B12 becomes essential for these dietary groups.
What happens if I have Vitamin B12 deficiency?
Vitamin B12 deficiency can lead to symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, constipation, loss of appetite, weight loss, and megaloblastic anemia (an abnormal red blood cell condition). It may also cause neurological complications like numbness or tingling in the hands and feet. Other possible consequences include balance problems, depression, confusion, dementia, memory impairment, mouth sores, or tongue swelling.
