Buying injectable B12 query

[JordanC]

Hi all,

I have been on Goldpharma this morning looking to but the ampules of hydroxcalbiliun (can spell it!). I can see 10 of the oral/parent 1ml, but there are injectable solutions of 5 ampules of 2ml.

Can the oral/patent be injected ? I can't see 1ml injectable!

Thank you

Most ampoules of hydroxcobalamin can be taken by mouth, if you can absorb it this way. But not all ampoules can be injected. If you see a reference to 'parenteral', that means that item is suitable for injection. If the description only says 'oral' or, on a German site 'Trinkampullen', the formulation is only suitable for oral administration.

Hi

Can you really take the ampoules of Hydroxocobalin by mouth.I have never heard of this before.New to me.

[Hillwoman in reply to Chocolate41]

So I understand. I've never tried it though - pointless with my PA.

[JordanC in reply to Chocolate41]

Pointless if you can't absorb B12 through your stomach, why injections are given

[MaryWarnecke]

No you cannot take the injections by mouth. Jordanc is correct pointless.

Hi , could someone help me please? not sure what to purchase in terms of needles for drawing up, injecting etc, size colour etc. Any help gratefully received. I presume the B12 is a solution and not a powder that has to me mixed etc. Sorry really don’t know what I am doing.
