If you want B12 Cynocobalamin , it is obtainable to be sent to the USA from the following Canadian online pharmacies —— Supplies for injecting B12 in USA .( Canadian online pharmacies ) using Cynocobalamin B12 .

biosenseclinic.com Has Cynocobalamin in single use ampoules ( safest method) and multi-use vials .Also have needles 

canadadrugsuperstore.com

Has same as above .

buy-otc.com

Also have multi dose vials and single use ampules .

——————————————————————————

Single use ampoules are the safest   to administer B12. Several use vials are at greater risk of contamination in a domestic situation , where they  are not very rapidly used . 

 

 

_____________________________________________________

bulksyringes.com has needles and syringes          

allegromedical.com         ditto.         ditto

shopmedvet.com              ditto.         ditto 

It is safer to use single-use ampoules than multi-use vials in a domestic situation , because of the danger of contamination, and the fact that a vial is not used up quickly in a domestic situation , unlike an ampoule which is injected within a minute of being opened .  

——————————————————————————

—————————————————————————

B12 can be administered by either an Intra-Muscular or a sub-cutaneous injection . 

For an I.M. Injection a 25G x 1 inch needle can be used . 

For a sub-cutaneous injection a 30G x 1/2 inch needle can be used .

A long coarse needle , say 21G x 11/2 inches long,  can be used to withdraw the B12 from the ampoule. This is needed because the needle is made blunt by touching the ampoule . This would make the injection painful .

This information is supplied to you by a private individual , who has been self-injecting  for eight years, using single -use ampoules.

apohealth.de , a reliable German online pharmacy will supply B12 depot ampoules ( Hydroxocobalamin) to USA , Delivery free . Site obtainable in English . Pay with PayPal or card . Only single use ampoules .

Search for Pascoe b12 depot 1.5 x 1ml

Hevert 1.00 x 2ml

Best wishes .

Do you know if they also supply methyl B12?

I have never seen it for sale except from Arnika , a small pharmacy in Munich Germany You have to email them or phone them if you want to order . Oxford Biosciences sell powdered Methylcobalamin, which has to be reconstituted with saline , but I would not recommend that .

I believe that you could get Methylcobalamin injections at beauty clinics in USA.

Wedgewood - Thanks for the information. I've been IM injecting for a few years now, using single use ampules (like the one in my pic). I always draw up & inject with the same 25g needle, never had an issue. I actually find the injections surprisingly pain free. I can see that using a 10ml vial 10 times is slightly more contamination risk, but I really don't think it's a problem if you're careful & wipe the top with alcohol before drawing up, If anyone has any other comments, please pass them on.
