Supporting Your Energy, Nervous System & Overall Health
Vitamin B12 is an essential nutrient that helps maintain healthy red blood cells, supports nerve function, and contributes to energy metabolism. Some people have difficulty absorbing enough B12 through diet or the digestive system, making injections a more effective option. At Murrays Ballsbridge Pharmacy, we offer a safe, convenient Vitamin B12 Injection Service for those with a valid prescription.
A doctor may prescribe B12 injections in cases such as:
-
Pernicious anaemia, where your body cannot absorb B12 properly
-
Nutritional deficiency (especially in vegetarian or vegan diets)
-
Gastrointestinal conditions or surgeries affecting absorption
-
Certain medications that interfere with B12 absorption
-
Symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, memory problems, numbness, or mood changes
The frequency depends on your doctor’s assessment and your individual needs. Some clients may receive injections monthly or at other intervals defined by their blood test results.
