FAQs

Mecobalamin is a synthetic form of vitamin B12. It works by increasing vitamin B12 levels in your body, assisting in the treatment of anaemias and nerve problems.

Pain, swelling, or itchy skin where your injection was administered; these symptoms are often minimal and should last only a few hours. If the discomfort is affecting you, you might seek a healthcare expert for a mild pain reliever.

When your vitamin B12 (Mecobalamin) blood levels return to normal, you may be able to discontinue taking Mecobalamin. However, if your diet lacks vitamin B12 or you cannot absorb enough vitamin B12 from food, you may need to take it for the rest of your life.

Vitamin B12 deficiency occurs when you don't have enough Methylcobalamin or Mecobalamin levels in the body. You can include natural Vitamin B12 sources like eggs, beef, liver, chicken, trout, salmon, tuna, fish, clams, fortified breakfast cereal, low-fat milk, yoghurt, and cheese in your diet to treat the deficiency. If you still have low levels of B12, please consult your doctor.

Diarrhoea might be a side-effect of Alphamix 500 mcg Injection 1 ml. Drink lots of fluids and eat food rich in fibre. If you find blood in your stools (tarry stools) or if you experience excess diarrhoea, consult your doctor.

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember. However, if it is time for the next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and follow your usual dosage.

Disease/Condition Glossary

Vitamins play an important role in our body. If your body cannot absorb enough vitamins and minerals, that can lead to neurological problems, bone abnormalities, and blood clotting problems. Symptoms like brittle hair and nails, mouth ulcers or cracks in the corners of the mouth, bleeding gums, poor night vision and white growths on the eyes, and neuropathic pain are associated with vitamin deficiency.

Peripheral neuropathy: The deficiency of vitamin B-12 is one cause of peripheral neuropathy. If it is left untreated, it can lead to permanent nerve damage. Peripheral neuropathy is when the nerves that transport messages to and from the brain and spinal cord and to the rest of the body might be damaged or diseased.

Megaloblastic anaemia: Megaloblastic anaemia is a blood disorder in which the number of red blood cells is lower than the normal level. Red blood cells help in transporting oxygen throughout the body. Tissues and organs will not get enough oxygen when your body lacks red blood cells. In megaloblastic anaemia, the red blood cells will be larger than normal, so they are not produced properly. Also, they may not be able to exit the bone marrow into the bloodstream. Megaloblastic anaemia is also known as vitamin B-12 or folate deficiency anaemia.
