Description

Cyanocobalamin 50mcg Tablets

Cyanocobalamin 50mcg 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.

Cautions

  • Ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before taking any medicine.

  • If you have any other medical conditions, speak to your doctor before you take these tablets.
  • Your doctor will want to monitor your response to this medicine carefully, particularly if you are young or elderly. This will probably involve regular examination of your blood every three months for 18 months and then annually.
Do not take Cyanocobalamin 50mcg Tablets if:
  • You know that you are allergic to cyanocobalamin or any of the other ingredients. 
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking or have recently taken or might take any other medicines, including medicines obtained without a prescription. The absorption of Cyanocobalamin 50mcg Tablets may be affected by:
  • Neomycin and chloramphenicol which are antibiotics.
