Frequently asked questions
What is Neurocin 1500mcg Injection?
Neurocin 1500mcg Injection contains vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 is an essential nutrient required by 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 (folate).
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. Vegetarians and vegans may have difficulty obtaining vitamin B12 because it is not naturally found in fruits, vegetables, or grains. This can lead to a deficiency of vitamin B12.
