Why do you add B12 to your injectable Semaglutide?

Vitamin B12 in Compounded GLP-1 Medications
All compounded injectable GLP-1 medications include Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin), a vital nutrient that supports metabolism, energy production, and neurological health. This addition is designed to enhance your treatment outcomes and overall well-being.

Why B12?
Injectable Cyanocobalamin can benefit those managing:
  1. Fatigue or low energy
  2. Mood disorders, including mild depression or anxiety
  3. Nerve pain or neuropathy
  4. Anemia or low red blood cell counts
  5. Chronic conditions such as thyroid dysfunction or diabetes
Potential Side Effects
  1. Some people may notice temporary nausea or mild redness/irritation at the injection site as the body adjusts.
  2. These effects typically resolve within 12 weeks.
Tips for Comfort During Adjustment
  1. Over-the-counter or prescription remedies may help manage nausea.
  2. Antihistamines can reduce mild skin reactions.
  3. A temporary dose adjustment may ease the transition for sensitive individuals.
