Cyanabee-H IM Uses
Hydroxocobalamin is a man-made injectable form of vitamin B12
used to treat low levels (deficiency) of this vitamin. Vitamin B12
helps your body use fat and carbohydrates for energy and make new
protein. It is also important for normal blood, cells, and nerves.
Most people get enough vitamin B12 in their diet, but a deficiency
may occur in certain health conditions (e.g., poor nutrition,
stomach/intestinal problems, infection, cancer). Serious vitamin
B12 deficiency may result in anemia, stomach problems, and nerve
damage.
