Good day i would like to enquirer how to go about getting a prescription for a vitamin b12 shot at the local clicks store ?

What for?: Why do you think you need a shot of B12? Did you get a test to see if you are deficient in B12? Do you have any symptoms? Taking a shot of B12, if you are not deficient, will not make any difference to your health. If you must you may take a sublingual form of B12 which is available without prescription.
