Hi missi2209.... Well like Gambit said it might be worth talking to a pharmacist..I've tried the zinc to no avail 😔... And tried tweaking my diet to no avail... If it's a side effect of the B12... Then I think we'll just have to put up with it until we're well enough to be on 3 monthly ☺.. I think it'll go then. ☺... All the best for the future ☺

Hi Frances, I see your reply was 10 months ago can I ask have you found that your skin has settled down whilst on the 3 monthly injections? x

I have the same problem!! So you are not he only one who experienced this side effect from the B12 injection. I went to the dermatologist and he gave me medication for the acne. Good luck.
