I have just purchases Methylcobalamin in powdered form from Oxford Biosciences Ltd but the sterile saline solution they recommend from germany is not available. Can you use the Boots Everyday Sterile Saline? Thanks for your help

That’s not the same as saline for injection . You need NaCl 0,9% Get onto the German online pharmacy apohealth.de. Get it in English ( bottom left on my iPad . Union Jack ) Use the Pharmaceutical reference number 02737756. That’s for Braun injectable saline Comes in 20 x 10 ml ampoules . No delivery charges .

Anything for injecting is strictly prescription only in U.K. Yes even saline

Please be very cautious and observe every rule in dealing with the powdered. B12 .
