If youve got a more serious case of vitamin B12 deficiency, your doctor may recommend B12 shots to boost those B12 levels
Risks and Side Effects While generally safe, vitamin B12 injections can have side effects or risks, such as: Mild pain, swelling, or redness at the injection site Dizziness, headache, or nausea Allergic reactions (rare) Hypokalemia (low potassium levels) in individuals with severe deficiency undergoing treatment People with allergies to cobalt or who have Lebers disease should avoid B12 injections unless specifically advised by a doctor
If the issue lies with absorption, B12 shots or IV infusions are an effective alternative to oral supplements because they are administered via injection or intravenously, meaning they do not need to be absorbed through the digestive process
Two recent meta-analyses that pooled data from patients with end-stage renal disease found no benefit of B-vitamin supplementation on stroke outcomes (34, 35)
