Does anyone use 1mcg B12 in 2ml?

I see these available on Amazon.de but wondered what the usual administration is? Do you treat them the same way as a 1mcg in 1ml?

Perhaps it means spiltting the ampoules and only injecting half? Which seems like a waste.

It says they should be used 'up to twice a week or at the discretion of your doctor'.

So could there be any risks to injecting a full 2ml more regularly? I am considering daily injections.

The 1mcg in 2ml is the same strength as the 1mcg in 1ml. The 2ml is a slightly bigger ampoule as it has twice the liquid. (Saline) I think. I have used both and both you inject the whole ampoule in one go.

I have used these for about a year, because they were what I could get. I use 3ml syringes. I inject anywhere from twice daily to 3 times a week, depending on my symptoms and have never had any problems.

Not what you're looking for?
