Pascoe Hydroxocobalamin

I recently got a box of 100 Pascoe Hydroxocobalamin shots and 10 of Hevert Hydroxocobalamin, but the Pascoe one doesnt seem to do anything for me.

Has anyone else experienced this?

No. Pascoe hydroxy is my b12 of choice. Could it have been ruined in heat or light?

I honestly don't know. It seems to be a brand new batch.

It could have been exposed to heat in transit? You’ll never know, but it’s a good brand,

No, more the other way around for me.

A friend of mine also feels like Pascoe doesn't do anything for her. Tried it multiple times with different batches. So she injects Hevert. I've rarely heard from cases like that, but there is really no explanation.

I wonder if it matters if its a IM or SC injection. The Hevert is in a 2ml solution, and i believe doing a proper SC injection can be a lil tricky. I am going to try to inject it with a 45 degree angle instead of my regular 90 degree angle shots, but I doubt that will change a lot.

I don't think that this is the issue. Personally I know nobody who injects IM, but only this one friend has issues with Pascoe.

Oh... Wish it just worked as I got a 100 of them =/

I find Pascoe Hydroxocobalamin absolutely excellent . But we know how under researched and how little knowledge there is about B12 d / PA Maybe it just doesn’t suit you for some unknown reason .

Or maybe it got overheated or frozen somehow . I have only heard Pascoe B12 depot the subject of praise on this forum .

Best wishes .

I will just continue to use it for one more week and see maybe if it will work or not.. I dont expect magic to happen but you never know haha.

I've been on Hervert for years but I have had a bad batch once. Probably damaged in shipping.

So I always have a backup.

Haven't tried pasco but so many like it.

I use Pascoe for more than 4 years. It is good for me. May be you have to try Cyanocobalamin, or Methyl for injections. No different for me, but we are all individuals.

The Hevert one does work for me, so I guess I will buy that one. I will try a few more Pascoe shots just to be sure though.

I’m using a box of Pascoe that I bought a few months ago which seems fine. Could yours have been damaged?

I honestly don't know.. I used to get b12 shots from my doc, but they only do once every 2 months, which clearly doesn't work for me, but I can't get them to do montly shots.

I am from the Netherlands though.

If you’ve used Pascoe before it might be a batch issue.

MemChem in reply toBadHare

It's my first time trying to do b12 shots. The Hevert one works like the one that my doc gives, the Pascoe so far, doesnt do anything. Usually my headache and fatigue goes away for a few days after each injection, and it does that with Hevert but not with Pascoe.

That’s a pity. Perhaps the formula doesn’t agree with you.

Yea, I wish I wasnt scared to do IM injections to be sure, if its due to not injecting it properly..

Not what you're looking for?
