Vitamin B12 Injections (Cobalamin Supplementation)

Vitamin B12 Injections (Cobalamin Supplementation) restore B12 levels in dogs with malabsorption issues, such as exocrine pancreatic insufficiency (EPI) or chronic GI disease. Some dogs need B12 long-term, while others receive it temporarily after illness or gut imbalance. It is given as a subcutaneous injection, typically weekly at first, then tapering to monthly if ongoing support is needed. Available through veterinarians, who can administer injections or provide vials and syringes for at-home use.
