Can You Give Yourself A B12 Shot In Your Leg?

Answer Question

    I would first have to wonder how you were obtaining an injectable B-12.  This is something not generally sold OTC and may therefore be unsafe.
    That said, I would definitely recommend against it.  It is an intramuscular injection, and you run the risk of perforating a blood vessel, damaging the muscle, or causing a major infection as sepsis or cellulitis without proper technique.
    There are several other forms of B-12 that are more readily available to your body than an injection anyway.  There are highly effective oral doses, nasal sprays & transdermal patches.  Good luck.
