B-12/B-complex shots typically are used to help fight fatigue and mood disorders in those that are elderly, stressed, don’t absorb nutrients well or have a poor diet.  Patients with fatigue, depression, memory impairment, alcoholism, addiction disorders, diabetic neuropathy, sciatica, autism, chronic pain and impaired detoxification may benefit from weekly or monthly injections.  Coffee, alcohol, stress, and toxins rapidly deplete these nutrients. The B-vitamins also have the added benefit of helping hair and nails grow quickly and strong.  Although these injections have very few side effects or drug interactions please let your doctor know about any allergies or medications before use.  B-12 Shots contain:

B-1:  Thiamin need increases with age and alcohol use.  The nervous system depends heavily on B-1, and it is especially needed to metabolize carbohydrates in the brain.  Thiamin is used therapeutically to treat Anemia, Depression, Diabetic Neuropathy, Sciatica, Trigeminal Neuralgia, Glaucoma, Insomnia, Neurosis and Anxiety.  Signs of thiamin deficiency include mental confusion, anorexia, muscle weakness, calf pain, constipation, indigestion, rapid or irregular heart beat.

B-2: Riboflavin is used by the body to form energy in the form of ATP, as well as niacin, and folic acid. Antibiotics and prescription hormones and birth control pills deplete the body of B-2. Deficiency symptoms include skin rashes, enlarged tongue, itchy eyes, sensitivity to light, hair loss, anemia, neuropathy, pre-cataracts and seborrehic dermatitis or itchy flakey scalp.  Riboflavin is used therapeutically to treat Acne Rosacea, Anemia, Cataracts, Depression, and Migraine Headaches.

B-3: Niacin is vital for the production of energy, fatty acids and steroids, as well as the detoxification of alcohol.  Alcohol use depletes niacin. Deficiency results in dermatitis, diarrhea, dementia, and death.  Niacin is used therapeutically to treat Osteoarthritis, High Cholesterol, Anxiety, Multiple Sclerosis, Bell’s Palsy, Trigeminal Neuralgia, Tardive Dyskinesia, Type 1 Diabetes, Insomnia, Menstrual Cramps, Migraines, Raynaud’s Syndrome, Alcoholism, Acne, Alzheimers, and Smoking Cessation.

B-6: Pyridoxine is needed primarily for detoxification and to form neurotransmitters that boost mood such as serotonin and norepinephrine. The body depends on B-6 for energy production and the development of the myelin sheath surrounding nerves required for nerve conduction. Signs of deficiency are depression, nausea, vomiting, mouth lesions, dandruff, neuropathy, clumsiness, instability, irritability, decreased concentration, seizures, tics and convulsions.  B-6 is frequently used to treat PMS, Nausea , Carpal Tunnel, Seizures, Depression, Asthma, Acne, Dementia, and Diabetic Neuropathy.

B-12: Cobalmin deficiency causes anemia, peripheral neuropathy, fatigue, depression, confusion, memory loss, psychosis, enlarged tongue, and decreased immune system. B-12 is used for treating  Allergies, Asthma, Pernicious Anemia, Canker Sores, Hepatitis, Herpes, Psoriasis, Dandruff, Acne, Diabetic Neuropathy, Chronic Neurological Pain, Fatigue, Dementia, Heart Disease, Smoking Cessation, Bone Spurs, Bursitis, and Osteoporosis.
