B 12 injections from abroad

[Asad2]

Hi guys, I live in England. Where can I get B 12 injections over the counter in the UK or from abroad with UK delivery service? Thanks

Hi, my best advice to you would be to look at wedgewood posts. She will give you a good guidance where and what to buy. 😊

[Asad2 in reply to SallyRees]

Appreciate it

I buy mine from Germany.. as do many persons living in the UK. There is a good fb group that has where to source supplies in their files- which give the links/( and a lot of help). I have been able to help all my daughters and grandchildren with their B12 issues thanks to the admin. Pat Kornic was an admin on the PAS group too. (Don’t underestimate the information that this group contains.) it’s the

Pernicious Anaemia/B12 Deficiency Group- 35k members.. many from UK.

I buy from Versandapo in Germany… they have the lowest shipping costs.. and the pharmacy used was the same supplier that my GP surgery used. There are other suppliers too.

I source needles etc from UK.

[Asad2 in reply to mardiray]

When did you order from Versandapo last time? It seems that they stopped shipping to the UK. 😪

[Lincsangel1 in reply to Asad2]

They do ship to UK.. you need to make an account with them first

[wedgewood in reply to Asad2]

They have not stopped shipping to the U.K. . They are having difficulties getting stOCK of Panpharma B12 depot . Do register with them and when you fill out the address form FILL IN YOUR COUNTRY FROM THE DROP-DOWN LIST FIRST OF ALL . THIS IS IMPORTANT , SO THAT YOUR POSTAL CODE CAN BE ACCEPTED .

Then if you want Panpharma B12 depot ampoules, and find they are out of stock , fill in the box with your email address , and they will inform you when they are back . Then you must order straight away , or they will be out of stock again .

[Asad2 in reply to wedgewood]

Thanks for the detailed response. Any recommendations for an alternative to panpharma injectins?

[wedgewood in reply to Asad2]

I have bought some Pascoe B12 depot ampoules 1.5 mg x 1ml Packs of 10 ref no. 0756872

Packs of 100 ampoules ( 10 x 10) ref. no 07658695

So they are 50% Stronger than Panpharma , and more expensive , but I inject them as usual ( I need one a week ! )

VersandApo Germany, I ordered last Saturday said out of stock Tuesday then arrived yesterday (100 ampoules)

[SallyRees in reply to Suchadrain]

I’ve been checking this site constantly, maybe 10x a day and they say they are out of stock. Which brand did you order?

[Lincsangel1 in reply to SallyRees]

[Lincsangel1 in reply to SallyRees]

If its panpharma you are looking for, it's been out of stock for almost 2 weeks.. apparently there are problems with it and no one knows when it will be available... I switched to Pascoe 2 months ago...its stronger and also does not sting.. I wouldn't switch back to panpharma

[SallyRees in reply to Lincsangel1]

thank you for that, yes there seems to be a stock issue with all the regular sites. I have ordered the Pascoe as an alternative this time. Let’s hope this isn’t a long term shortage.

[Lincsangel1 in reply to SallyRees]

You may find you prefer it...I do..

[SallyRees in reply to Lincsangel1]

I hope so 😊

Please could you let me know the use by date on your B12? Thanks

Hi,

Just wondered if your GP is treating you for B12 deficiency.

If you are getting NHS treatment, how often are you getting injections?

Some links that might be useful...some links may have details that could be upsetting.

Link about "What to do next" if B12 deficiency suspected or recently diagnosed.

If you have PA or B12 deficiency from other causes and you're struggling to get proper treatment from NHS, there's a lot more info forum members can pass on.

Some UK forum members with B12 deficiency who cannot manage on NHS levels of treatment choose to treat themselves but I see this as a last resort.

Some get extra injections from private GPs or beauty salons, some try high dose oral B12 but this doesn't work for some people and some resort to self injection.

Maybe you could tell the forum a bit more about why you want B12 injections when you have time.
