While vitamin B12 injections are generally safe, it’s essential to be aware of potential interactions with certain medications. Here’s what you need to know:
- Medications to watch out for: Some medications that might interact with B12 include:
- Certain antibiotics
- Metformin (diabetes medication)
- Proton pump inhibitors (acid reflux medications)
- Chloramphenicol (used for rare infections)
- How interactions happen: These interactions can affect how well your body absorbs B12 or interfere with the medication’s effectiveness.
The Importance of Transparency: Always provide a complete list of your current medications, including supplements and over-the-counter drugs, to your healthcare provider at House of Aesthetics before starting B12 injections. They’ll be able to assess any potential interactions and adjust your treatment plan accordingly.
