Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

My age is 41 years. I have taken Care 3 injections of B12, after seven days, test results are greater than 1500 pg/ml. Before injections 100 pg/ml. Please suggest how to decrease and was it dangerous to my body?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Do not worry. It is not dangerous. It is a water-soluble vitamin and will be excreted in urine. You do not need to take any medicines for that, just have plenty of water. Measure level again after two weeks. Avoid injections of Vitamins, just have tablets for both Vitamin D and Vitamin B12, if necessary in future after checking levels only.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
