This firm is in the USA , quite expensive .A few months back I remember that someone posted that they had used them and all was well. I went online to them and put some in the basket, and just left it there. The firm got back to me and offered me 20% discount if I would complete the sale ! I don’t use Methylcobalamin any more , as I find that Hydroxocobalamin works so well for me .

I have recently bought some from there. They are expensive but could not find anywhere else at the time stocking it and wanted to give it a go. I ended up paying a customs charge of £23 ish which made them even more expensive!

I have read since about a German company stocking them so may be worth going over old posts to have a look as will probably end up cheaper!

May I ask how well they worked for you? Do you know what the inactive ingredients are? TroyNZ indicated that they were too painful to inject - was this your experience also? Thank you for your time!

I didn’t notice any difference in my symptoms. It was much more painful to inject and I found myself avoiding injecting. I ended up giving up and going back to the hydroxocobalamin. Hope this helps!

I just ordered from them and will try to report back. However, for the few who've used them, how did it work? The replies only relate to cost. I am in the US so shipping cost wasn't a factor. I've not self injected before so I'm a little worried, but I just moved and it is very difficult getting new docs to perscribe so I ordered just in case. I've already gone without for several months and not doing well. Diagnosed with PA in 2003. I looked at the German site that has the methyl form but it said they won't ship to the US :(

dixiecat, how did you go with the B12 from Vitaminquick? I bought some from there because I wanted to trial Methylcobalamin. The trial was very short lived. The injections where so painful that I only had 1 shot. I tried 1 more but that was just as bad so I threw the lot away and went back to Hydroxocobalamin.

I live in New Zealand so it had a long way to travel (presumably through different temperatures). But I would be interested to hear your experience with this.

Do you happen to know what the inactive ingredients were? Trying to find a good source of methylcobalamin that will ship to the US. Thank you for your time!

I have no idea, it is just marketed as Methylcobalamin. They were very good at responding to e-mails though.
