Frequently asked questions
What is Relomin 1500mcg Injection?
Relomin 1500mcg Injection contains vitamin B12. Vitamin B12 is an essential nutrient that plays a crucial role in producing red blood cells and maintaining a healthy nervous system. It's also vital for converting food into energy and using vitamin B11 (folic acid).
Why can't I get sufficient vitamin B12 in my diet?
Vitamin B12 is found naturally in meat, fish, eggs, and dairy products. However, some people may not consume enough vitamin B12 through their diets if they are vegetarian or vegan as it is not naturally present in fruits, vegetables, and grains. This often leads to a deficiency of vitamin B12.
What happens if I have vitamin B12 deficiency?
Vitamin B12 deficiency can lead to fatigue, weakness, constipation, loss of appetite, weight loss, and megaloblastic anemia. This condition involves abnormally large red blood cells. Deficiency may also cause nerve problems such as numbness and tingling in the hands and feet. Other symptoms include difficulties with balance, depression, confusion, dementia, memory impairment, and soreness of the mouth or tongue.
