Uses of Me-12 Injection

Vitamin B12 deficiency

Benefits of Me-12 Injection

In Vitamin B deficiency
Me-12 restores the B vitamins your body needs to turn food into energy and to keep nerves and blood cells healthy, correcting the deficiency behind symptoms such as tiredness, sore tongue and pins and needles.
In Nerve pain and tingling
Me-12 supplies the vitamins nerves need to repair their protective covering, which over weeks can ease the burning, tingling and numbness of nerve damage.
In Anaemia
Me-12 gives the bone marrow the B12 and folate it needs to make healthy red blood cells, correcting the anaemia and the tiredness and breathlessness that come with it.
In Tiredness due to deficiency
Me-12 corrects a lack of B vitamins, which is a common and easily missed reason for feeling drained. Energy returns as the stores are rebuilt.

How Me-12 Injection works

ME 12 Injection is a form of vitamin B12 that restores its level in the body thereby helping in treating certain anemias and nerve problems.

How to take Me-12 Injection

Your doctor or nurse will give you this medicine. Kindly do not self administer.

Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.

Missed dose and overdose

If you miss a dose

If you miss a dose of ME 12 Injection, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.

If you take too much

An overdose of this medicine is unlikely to cause serious harm, because the body passes surplus B vitamins out in the urine. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.

Side effects of Me-12 Injection

Most side effects of Me-12 are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:

  • Nausea
  • Stomach upset
  • Harmless bright yellow urine
  • Loose motions

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Warnings and precautions

Tingling, numbness or burning in the hands and feet should be assessed by a doctor rather than self-treated — a supplement does not address the cause. Folic acid can mask a vitamin B12 deficiency while nerve damage continues, so B12 should be checked before taking folic acid long term. Bright yellow urine after a B-complex dose is expected and harmless.

Do not take Me-12 if

Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack.

Interactions with other medicines

Long-term metformin, acid-reducing medicines and some anti-epileptics lower B12 or folate levels. Tell your doctor if you take levodopa, as vitamin B6 can reduce its effect.

How to store Me-12 Injection

Store as printed on the carton — some injections need refrigeration and must not be frozen. Keep out of the reach of children.
