What is Methylcobalamin B12?

Not all Vitamin B12 shots are created equal. Many clinics use a synthetic version called cyanocobalamin, which your liver has to work to break down and convert. At Alpha Vital Elite IV, we use premium, pure compounded Methylcobalamin sourced directly from Olympia Pharmacy.

Methylcobalamin is the naturally active “coenzyme” form of B12. This means it is completely ready for your body to recognize and use the second it is injected, maximizing your body’s potential for energy production, brain clarity, and nerve health.

Why choose an Intramuscular (IM) injection?

Just like Vitamin D, oral B12 pills are incredibly hard for the human gut to absorb. Our 1 cc injection delivers a highly concentrated 5 mg dose deep into your muscle tissue. This guarantees 100% absorption directly into your bloodstream, providing immediate support to your nervous system and metabolism.

When is this injection recommended?

Who it’s recommended for.

B12 injections are highly recommended if you suffer from:

  1. 01

    Energy

    Constant fatigue

    Feeling drained even after a full night of sleep.

  2. 02

    Focus

    Brain fog

    Difficulty concentrating, remembering tasks, or maintaining sharp mental focus.

  3. 03

    Nerves

    Nerve tingling

    Mild numbness or “pins and needles” sensations in your hands or feet.

  4. 04

    Diet

    Dietary gaps

    Essential for individuals following strict vegan or vegetarian lifestyles, as natural B12 is only found in animal products.

Dose & schedule

How often should you get
a B12 injection?

How is the B12 injection given?

Delivered quickly and comfortably as an intramuscular shot in the arm or hip.

Why is B12 given more often than Vitamin D?

Unlike Vitamin D, Vitamin B12 is completely water-soluble. Your body utilizes what it needs right away and safely flushes out any excess through your urine. Because it does not build up to toxic levels, it requires a different routine.

How often will I come in?

Depending on your clinical baseline and how quickly your body uses energy, this injection is typically given on a weekly or bi-weekly routine to maintain steady, vibrant energy levels without the sudden crashes common with oral supplements.

Physician-directed
