What side effects should I watch for with Lipo-B12?
Short answer
Lipo-B12 may cause pain, redness, or swelling where you inject it. Other reactions can depend on its ingredients and your health history. Seek emergency care for trouble breathing, fainting, or swelling of the face or throat. Tell your physician about any new or lasting symptoms before taking another dose.
Possible side effects include soreness, redness, itching, or swelling at the injection site. Nausea, diarrhea, or rash may also occur. The exact risks depend on the ingredients, concentration, dose, and your health history. There is no single established side-effect rate for this compounded combination, and this is not a complete list of possible reactions.
Call 911 for trouble breathing, swelling of the face or throat, or fainting after an injection. These may be signs of a severe allergic reaction. Get prompt medical advice for fever, spreading redness, warmth, drainage, or worsening pain at an injection site. These may signal an infection rather than a routine injection reaction.
Tell your physician about allergies, including any known reaction to cobalt or vitamin B12 products, before starting. Report new symptoms and ask whether to hold the next dose. Compounded medications are prepared by a licensed pharmacy for one patient and are not FDA-approved. Your pharmacist can review the full ingredient list, including preservatives, for possible sensitivities.
