I’ve been unable to get hold of my usual panpharma b12 for SI. What alternative do you use? Hoping to stay injecting hydroxocobalamin as my body hates change. Thanks, Cx

The following German online pharmacies will deliver B12 depot single use ampoules to U.K. .
apohealth.de. ( in Munich) Site is obtainable in English (Union flag, bottom left on my device ) also deliver World wide and USA.
versandapo.de ( in Leipzig) Site is in German . Use Google chrome to obtain translation . This pharmacy is usually cheaper than apohealth They ship to EU and U.K. only .
apotheke-marienbrunn.de ( in Leipzig)
In German . Use Google chrome if you need translation . Also deliver to Australia New Zealand and USA.
When filling out the address form , you will see that the country is already filled in with GERMANY / DEUTSCHLAND . You must first change your country to “ Vereinigtes Königreich Grossbrittanien und Nord Ireland “. UNITED KINGDOM , U.K. VEREINIGTES KÖNIGREICH however expressed .on the drop-down list . Do this so that your post code and then the rest of your address will be accepted , .
Other wise you will be unable to order,! and will start tearing your hair out !!!
Amazon.de also sell Pascoe and Hevert , but you can’t use the pharmaceutical references to order Obtainable in English . You will find that some supplying pharmacies will ship to U.K. . Some will not .
The following brands are obtainable
Panpharma ( formerly Rotexmedica ) b12 depot 1mg x 1ml ampoule ( depot indicates Hydroxocobalamin) ref no 16199653. This is the most popular ampoule used by PAS members .
It is the best value , but sometimes /often is out of stock . You can then opt to be emailed to be told when it is back in stock .
If the Panpharma b12 depot ( Hydroxocobalamin ) is out of stock , you may like to consider the Panpharma Cynocobalamin . B12 The pharmaceutical reference number is 16199707 .
Cynocobalamin may need to be injected more often .
Pascoe B12 depot 1.5mg x 1ml ampoules- Packet of 10 ref no 07568672
Pascoe b12 depot 1.5 mg x 1ml ampoules-10 packets of 10 ampoules (100)
Ref no 07568695
The Pascoe are much cheaper per packet if you buy the offer of 10packets .If you inject weekly , or more
that would cover you .
But if you inject less frequently, the ampoules may become out of date .
Pascoe Cynocobalamin b12 Reference number is 03262634 for 1 packet (1mg x 1ml)
Pascoe Cynocobalamin B12 Reference number is 03262657 10 packets 100 ampoules ( 1mg x 1ml);
Hevert b12 depot 1mg x2ml ampoules packet of 10
Ref no 06078368
Hevert b12 depot 1mg x 2 ml 10 packets of 10 ampoules- ( 100)
Ref 06078380.
Use the pharmaceutical reference numbers to order , much simpler than using brand names , and then you know you are ordering Hydroxocobalamin, not Cynocobalamin , which the companies also sell . But some patients like Cynocobalamin B12 . It is the B12 of choice in the USA , and cheaper than Hydroxocobalamin It’s just called B12, NOT B12 Depot
When filling out your address form, do fill in your country first of all . “Germany”/ Deutschland : will be displayed , so you must change this with the drop-down list which will appear , — to U.K./ Gross Brittanien/ Vereinigtes Königreich Grossbrittaniens , — how ever it may be expressed. If you don’t do this , your U.K. address and post code will not be accepted , and you will end up in a tizzy . We don’t want that !
PLEASE BE AWARE OF THE FOLLOWING
Also do remember that now the U.K. has left the EU , there is a limit to the value of goods that we are allowed to import, before tax is due on items coming from the EU . Tax is applicable if the value exceeds about £132.00 , but I’m not sure of the figure , so please look it up . On top of that there is a charge of £8.00 made by Royal Mail for processing it. I’m also not sure of how much the tax is . But a member has been shocked by what she had to pay when she ordered over the limit . . So please be aware of this , and check . I believe that even the cost of delivery charge is included in the total . It was when I ordered something from USA .
Very best wishes .
Please also be aware that we need to be glad that the above pharmacies deliver B12 ampoules to U.K. .Because strictly speaking they are not allowed to send any item to a country where that item is prescription only . B12 ampoules are prescription only in U.K. ( but not in Germany ) But I suppose they do this because they know that B12 injections are totally harmless, indeed , life-saving to P.A.patients , unlike many other prescription medications .
Thank you. Looks like there is big other option but to switch to Cynocobalamin 😢
I am using the Pascoe B12 depot Hydroxocobalamin since the shortage of Panpharma’s . Find them absolutely excellent
I've just tried these following your advice a few weeks ago and found them to be excellent. So thanks for the heads up on these. I don't use the whole phial, so have to use less. No stinging or soreness like the Panpharma and had a really good lift from them. I'm feeling much sharper than I have in a while. Made me wonder whether my last Panpharmas were a bit of a dud batch...
I managed to get mine the other day from versandapo.de.
They were not showing on the site but when I went into previous orders to my surprise it let me reorder and were delivered yesterday.
I use Zentiva and the Panpharma.
I buy ampoules via a group on FB which operates in the UK . Let me knit if you want the details
