Injections are typically administered in your doctor’s office on a weekly basis and given in the arm, thigh, abdomen, or buttocks. Vitamin B-12 injections may be recommended twice a week.
In the event that a patient is suffering from B-12 deficiency, their provider also may instruct them to perform injections at home.
