What’s the Recommended Dosage for B12 shots?
Dosing for nutritional injections varies greatly depending on your levels and goals.
In general, dosing for B12 shots is 500 to 5,000mcg injected weekly to monthly as a subcutaneous or intramuscular injection.
If you have a deficiency, you may inject a higher dose more frequently until your levels reach the recommended range. If you’re supplementing to optimize your nutrition rather than treat a deficiency, you may inject a smaller amount weekly or monthly.
Defy Medical provides customized guidance based on your unique needs. Patients should follow their provider’s instructions on how much and how often to utilize B12 injections.
