Usually 1 month: For severe deficiency, initially the shots may be daily/weekly. Once levels stable, they are usually given im monthly.

Why do you need it?: Why are you getting injections? Did a doctor test for deficiency? Are you vegan? If not, why are you deficient? Don't get B12 injections or take pills (less expensive) unless you are vegan or have a known deficiency. B12 is in fish, chicken and meat. Eat fish like wild salmon for a healthy source of b12.
