In need of injectable Methylcobalamin

Hi, I just called Intravita to get my usual delivery of methyl and I'm told they're not longer selling it. They said to go directly to the manufacturer - Arnica Apothecary (Germany) - but it looks as if I have to be medical to order with them. Can anyone help/advise on where I can get injectable methylcobalamin please? I'm devastated...

VITAMINQUICK AND B12 ONLINE, BOTH SELL METHYLCOBALAMIN. BEST WISHES.

Both those are US companies. Neither ship their methylcobalamin refrigerated, so it will go off in transit.

It's not easy to get injectable methylcobalamin in Europe because almost everybody uses hydroxocobalamin, or cyanocobalamin, both of which are as good as, if not better than, methylcobalamin.

Thank you but I don’t understand the article. I’ve always self injected with methyl so not sure of anything else. Obviously have hydroxo from gp but that does next to nothing.

Forgot to mention that the international dialling code for Germany is 0049 then you leave off the zero at the beginning of the number . . I have phoned them in the past and they have always understood English . They are friendly and competent . Best wishes .

I got an email back from Arnika (I am in Canada):

METHYLCOBALAMIN 1MG AMP 10X1 ML (8019720) 10 299,00 €

Versand Kanada 1 ST (8044971) 1 25,00 €

I wonder why the price I'm quoted is so much higher than yours.

As a comparison, I got Rotexmedica hydroxocobalamin 10x1ml from counterapo on amazon.de for about 8 € + 30 € shipping via bpost.

The price I quoted was from Intravita not Arnika. I haven’t bought from them before.

I just realized that maybe the price they quoted was for 100 vials, not 10.

Rustypoo has the answer for Arnika’s Methylcobalamin . I always buy 10 x 10 packets of Rotexmedica Hydroxocobalamin. from either versandapo.de or from bodfeld-apotheke.de .

Costs about £58 for 100 ampoules , with a use - by date of about 2 1/2 years . The courier costs €9.00 no matter how many you order .
