Hydroxocobalamin, the form most commonly used in the UK, may cause: Injection site reactions (pain, redness, or swelling) Temporary reddish discolouration of urine Rarely, hypersensitivity reactions Very rarely, hypokalaemia in severely deficient patients when treatment is initiated (potassium levels should be monitored in severe deficiency) B12 injections are considered very safe, with no upper tolerable limit established, as excess B12 is excreted in urine
This implies that our body needs vitamin B12 to function correctly
The research picture is the opposite: slow, cumulative, and subtle, with the biology plausibly running weeks ahead of anything observable

Two reasons are commonly cited: preventing receptor desensitization and avoiding copper accumulation
