About Neuroage 1500mcg Injection

METHYLCOBALAMIN belongs to a group ‘Vitamins' which is used in the treatment of peripheral neuropathies, megaloblastic anaemia caused by vitamin B12 deficiency. Vitamin B12 is a vital dietary nutrient and deficiency of vitamin B12 can lead to peripheral neuropathy, megaloblastic anaemia, and many other serious conditions.  

METHYLCOBALAMIN contains methylcobalamin, a form of vitamin B12, which helps to protect the nerves from damage and also helps to promote blood cell production. It regulates body functions, such as cell multiplication, blood formation, and protein synthesis.

Take METHYLCOBALAMIN with or without food. Swallow METHYLCOBALAMIN as a whole with a glass of water; do not chew, or break the tablet. You are advised to take METHYLCOBALAMIN for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you depending on your medical condition. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, and headache. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you have signs of an allergic reaction such as swelling of the face, lips, or tongue, breathing problems.

To treat your condition effectually, continue taking METHYLCOBALAMIN for as long as your doctor has prescribed. Please do not stop taking METHYLCOBALAMIN without consulting your doctor. Do not take METHYLCOBALAMIN if you are pregnant or breastfeeding unless prescribed by the doctor. METHYLCOBALAMIN should be given to children as advised by your doctor.
