ADENOSYLCOBALAMIN

Overview:

Adenosylcobalamin is one of the active forms of Vitamin B12, essential for helping the body make energy and maintain healthy nerve cells. It plays a key role in how your cells process fats and proteins and is especially important for nerve function and energy metabolism.

Classification:Nutritional supplement

Uses:

Adenosylcobalamin is a treatment to prevent or treat Vitamin B12 deficiency that would lead to fatigue, nerve disorders and anemia. It maintains energy generation, maintains the health of nerves and is very much involved in the digestion of fat and proteins. It can be found in B12 supplements, or it can be provided in such conditions as pernicious anemia or neuropathy or in some of the metabolic disorders.

How it works:

Adenosylcobalamin helps certain enzymes in your cells, especially inside the mitochondria, to work properly. It plays a key role in turning fats and proteins into energy, and helps maintain healthy nerves by supporting essential metabolic reactions.

Dosage:As prescribed by your doctor.

Side Effects:

• Headache
• Nausea
• Diarrhea
• Skin rash or itching (rare)
• Injection site pain or redness

Precautions:Before using adenosylcobalamin, let your doctor know if you have a history of allergies, especially to vitamin B12 or cobalt. If you have conditions like Leber’s disease (a rare eye disorder), it should be avoided as it may worsen vision. Also, let your doctor know about any medications you’re taking, since B12 can interact with certain drugs. Take the medicine as advised by your healthcare provider to stay safe and recover well.
