Information About Cyanocobalamin

Cyanocobalamin is a synthetic form of vitamin B12 used to treat and prevent vitamin B12 deficiency, pernicious anaemia, and neurological complications of B12 depletion in Singapore. Available as a 50mcg–1000mcg oral tablet or intramuscular injection depending on severity and absorption capacity, it is HSA-registered and available on prescription only in Singapore. Patients with pernicious anaemia or gastrointestinal malabsorption cannot absorb oral B12 adequately and require intramuscular injections to bypass intrinsic factor-dependent ileal absorption.
