Pernicious anemia :b12 injections every 2 mths would taking 15 mg lansoprazole every day for two years with plavix to protect the stomach from side effects from anti-platelet .could this deplete b12 and magnesium and cause neurological symptoms?

No: And if you want another way to get extra B12, you can get B12 pills OTC. Take 1000 unit pill once a day. Will yield same result as injections. Do you really need Lansoprazole???? Are you sure? Why taking Plavix for 2 years? Usually Plavix is used for 6 to 12 months after a stent or CABG. You should be taking an uncoated baby aspirin once a day.
