Frequently asked questions
What is Vitec 2500mcg Injection?
Vitec 2500mcg Injection contains vitamin B12, an essential nutrient required for the body to produce red blood cells and maintain a healthy nervous system. It plays a role in energy release from food, along with supporting the use of Vitamin B11 (folic acid).
Why can't I get sufficient vitamin B12 in my diet?
Vitamin B12 is found naturally in animal-based foods such as meat, fish, eggs, and dairy products. People who follow vegetarian or vegan diets may have difficulty obtaining enough vitamin B12 from their food sources because it's not present in plant-based alternatives like fruits, vegetables, or grains. This can lead to a deficiency in vitamin B12.
What happens if I have a vitamin B12 deficiency?
Vitamin B12 deficiency may lead to symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, constipation, loss of appetite, and unexplained weight loss. It can also cause megaloblastic anemia (an abnormal increase in red blood cells), leading to various symptoms like tingling or numbness in the hands and feet. Other potential signs of deficiency include problems with balance, depression, confusion, dementia, memory impairment, and soreness in the mouth or tongue.
Is Vitec 2500mcg Injection safe?
