Frequently asked questions
What is Naif Forte 2500mcg Injection?
Naif Forte 2500mcg Injection is a solution of vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 is an essential nutrient that the body requires to make red blood cells and maintain a healthy nervous system. It is also important for releasing energy from food and using vitamin B11 (folate).
Why can't I get sufficient vitamin B12 in my diet?
You may obtain vitamin B12 from sources such as meat, fish, eggs, and dairy products.

Vitamin B12 deficiency can cause fatigue, weakness, constipation, loss of appetite, weight loss, and megaloblastic anemia (a condition in which red blood cells become larger than normal).
