Question

Posted on: March 6 2013

Following Magijet prescription came in: Vit B12 2 mg/capsule dt 60 Gelullen 1/d

The only available cyanocobalamin is a 1:1000 trituration. Is it possible to prepare a syrup starting from Vit B12 solution for injection, or is there any other alternative?

Answer

Vitamin B12 can now also be purchased in pure condition, 1 g per pack. This solves the problem. For 60 capsules We need 120 mg, which we dilute with mannitol Z.A.N. for 60 capsules. Milk sugar is not suitable for vitamin B12.
