B12 supplies

I have been getting injectable methylcobalamin without prescription from a private source, but this supply has just dried up. As I'm about to run out, of course!

I have been getting a 30ml bottle of 5mg/ml for about £45.

Can anyone recommend an alternative source? Could you PM me please?

Thanks!

Do you even need a prescription for injectable Methyl ? oxford bioscience sell it online as do several other places in the UK, with no mention of a prescription being required. Hydroxo ( and cyano) needs a script, I get mine from Germany without though.

hydroxycobalimin is very cheap - under £5 for 5 amps from superdrug. Most private GPs will do a you a script. The consult is £80 and if you ask for a script of 10 amps, that is £100 for 10 amps.

The private sources tend to be cyano or methyl: it is not the same, suggest you research the difference.

Alternatively, cyano is OTC in Thailand. In fact I stocked up on it only to find it was not the equivalent of hydroxy.

I have p anaemia but NHS wants to ration me, so unless i self inject every 3-4 weeks, i get neurological symptoms.

Blue daffodil, I buy hydroxo from Germany without a prescription, it costs me around £15-£17 (inc postage and conversion rate charge) for 10 amps, please dont pay the £80 for the consultation unless you need to see him for something else, its much cheaper to pay the postage :(
