Cyanocobalamin 100mcg Tablets
Cyanocobalamin 100mcg Tablets contain cyanocobalamin, known as vitamin B12, and are used to treat vitamin B12 deficiency when injections cannot be used. Most people get enough vitamin B12 from their food, but if you have had stomach surgery, or certain diseases of the intestines, or a restricted diet, you may not absorb enough vitamin B12.
