A member asked:

Benefits to bi-weekly b12 injections? i don't feel more energetic than received monthly.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No benefit: I don't see any benefit to this type of treatment. As long as you get the necessary amount of B12 injection to replenish any deficiency you will have the proper amount of b12.
