Where is neurobion available? It is not available at the pharmacies in Malacca. Apparently MERSK is manufacturing this vitamin, but all pharmacies have said that it has stopped production? Only oral neurobion is available but it is troublesome to swallow daily, whereas neurobion (IM or IV) is much more convenient, only needing a jab a week.

I am 55 years old female with Laiden V; Iam taking coumadine 28mg/day and I would liek to know if I can take L-arginine Plus and also Vitamin B12 ## Hi Mirela, According to the MayoClinic, patients using anticoagulants, or other blood thinners, should consult a licensed practitioner before using L-arginine or B12. This is not to say that it can't be done, but you'll still want to double-check with your doctor on this one, as there are no drug interaction checkers that determine the safety of using Rx meds along with dietary supplements. I do know that both supplements have the potential to interact (based on their blood thinning properties), so in that sense I think it was wise of you to wait and ask first before taking such risks. It's really just a matter of the extent of ...

Does folbic help with memory loss? My mom has taken it for two weeks and no improvement yet ?? ## Hello, Steph! How are you and your mom? The FDA classifies this as just a multivitamin, so the only way it would help was if the memory loss was due to a deficiency in one of the vital nutrients it contains, such as the B12, which is known to help with cognitive function. Its only known typical side effects is nausea, due to its potency. Has this been prescribed for her?

I have pain, swelling and little stiffness in my knee joint. I have been given neucobal G for taking daily one. please tell me what are its uses and side effects. ## Neucobal-G is just a nutritional supplement that contains a form of Vitamin B12, it is sometimes given because it's believed that it can support nerve function. It may cause some nausea after you take it, but otherwise, since it is not a medication, it has not been tested for side effects as is done with actual drugs. Is there anything else I can help with? ## My mum took this medicine neucobal g 600, after taking this medicine her head and chest became heavy(like heavy) and very strong headache all over the head. Please tell me what to do to make her normal....do i need to admit her in a hospital.

I recently took Cyanocobalamin shot at drs and since then I'm dehydrated and have insomnia increased heart rate and bp. The hospital gave me fluids and sent me home. Did anyone else have this reaction or know how long a shot remains in your system? It's been a week. Hoping for rest soon, I usually have no problem sleeping. It's like I had a hundred red bulls. ## Hello, Melissa! How are you? The insomnia and energy burst can be normal side effects of vitamin B12. Some people even take it just for that reason. The Dehydration, however, is not normal, according to the side effects listed by the FDA. This is a nutrient that is always present in your body, so I can't really give you a time frame. What has your doctor advised? ## Thanks Verwon, my dr never heard of reaction, t...

I have a hart problem and the hospital gave me Anaerobyl 400 and Moxymax 500 and some Vitamin B complex but no hart pills, why? ## Hello, Allen! How are you? What heart problem do you have? Moxymax is listed by the FDA as containing the antibiotic Amoxicillin and its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea. Anaerobyl which is also an antibiotic that contains Metronidazole, so it's side effects are very similar. What was your actual diagnosis?

Tested positive for THC on a urine test. I need this to enter school. I never have used any drugs. I am currently on Naproxin 500 twice a day, B-6 100 mg. twice a day, and Sulfazaline 500 mg twice a day, for arthritis. One of these medications must be causing this. I do not live with nor socialize with anyone that does drugs. I took a blood test the following day, but do not know the results yet... so much rides on the results that I am nervous. ## I also took a test today and my levels for thc were on there. I do occasionally smoke but haven't in over a month. Why would I go to jail for damn cannabis? I did take aleve which is naproxen the night before, and in a new survey found somewhere on this site it said that naproxen CAN cause a false positive. I might be able to find the act...

I am 62+. I have never been a patient of BP as my usual BP range has been in range (!!6 - 120) & (70 to 76) and my ECG is normal.

I have noticed now that when I get up from a posture of sitting on floor to standing, I feel giddiness or some sort of blackout and need a support else I may even fall down.

What are the ingredients of cyanocobalam. Is sulfa one of these ingredients. ## Hello, Dianna! How are you? No, that is the ingredient. The FDA classifies this as a supplement, it is a form of vitamin B12. It has been known to cause nausea, in some people that take it. I cannot, however, speak to the inactive ingredients. That will vary from company to company. Can you please post back with more information? Thank you! ## The bottle says APP Pharmaceuticals, LLC Schaumburg, IL

someone was asking earlier today about how much mag to take and I cant find the thread. I use Nature Made Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc supplement with vitamin D. 2 tabs when needed, usually at night before bed. I also do an epsom salt bath every night with 1-2 cups epsom salt in the bath water, along with a sports alcohol. This is great! Sometimes when the restless legs are really bad I take several baths a night. I will never go without my magnesium!!!!!
