What is a B12 shot?
Vitamin B12 injection is a prescription-only medicine commonly used to prevent or treat vitamin B12 deficiency. It helps convert food into energy, keeping you feeling more energised and focused. B12 also supports healthy brain and nerve cells, helping to improve mood and memory.
Additionally, it plays a vital role in the production of red blood cells, helping to prevent anaemia, which can cause pale skin, weakness, and fatigue.
For the skin, vitamin B12 promotes the formation of new skin cells, aiding healing and repair to reduce scars and blemishes. It also helps keep the skin hydrated, glowing, and calm, with anti-inflammatory benefits that may ease acne or eczema.
At Trio Pharmacy Shepperton, we can discuss whether B12 injections are right for you and how they could support your energy, wellbeing, and skin health.

Am I suitable?
Is B12 shot good for me?
Whether you’re concerned about dry skin, thinning hair, or early signs of ageing, vitamin B12 could be the key. This natural nutrient helps nourish your hair and skin from within, promoting a healthier, more radiant appearance.
Individuals with conditions like coeliac disease or Crohn’s disease, which can limit B12 absorption from food, may particularly benefit from B12 injections.
We can discuss this during your consultation or online appointment to determine if B12 therapy would be a valuable addition to your wellness and beauty goals.
Can risks be prevented?
Vitamin B12 shots are safe for most people, but they can cause some side effects:
• Discomfort, redness or swelling at the site of the injection.
• Others may feel slight nausea or have an upset stomach.
• In much rarer cases headaches, symptoms of itching, or difficulty breathing.
• At high doses, it could impact other nutrients such as folic acid.
If you have a health condition, or are worrying about your certain body conditions, please consult a doctor.

Can I feel instant improvement?
As B12 injections are a rapid injection, many patients report feeling more energised and refreshed almost immediately after 48 to 72 hours.
