Vitamin B12 Supplementation

Vitamin B12

It’s vital you keep your vitamin B12 levels up, and we can help you here at Boustead Chemist.

Our specially-trained pharmacists can administer your injection – similar to a flu jab – at a time and date that’s suitable for you. While it is possible to obtain vitamin B12 from other sources, administering a dose through intramuscular injection is much swifter and more effective as it bypasses the inefficiency of the gut.

While it’s important that everybody considers getting involved, this service is most beneficial for those that follow a plant-based diet.






    What happens to our body without the appropriate levels of vitamin B12? Well, untreated deficiency can lead to various health issues, including neurological problems or pernicious anemia. Symptoms of a deficiency include:

    – Significant lack of energy known as ‘lethargy’
    – Extreme tiredness
    – Cognitive dysfunction commonly known as ‘mental fog’

    This occurs when your body doesn’t have enough B12 to produce the amount of red blood cells it needs, and can seriously impact your health and your day-to-day life.

    It shouldn’t replace supplement injections, however it’s important to keep in mind that you can receive B12 from the following food items;

    • Meat and fish
    • Eggs
    • Fortified breakfast cereals
