Frequently asked questions
What is Enerz ME Injection?
Enerz ME Injection contains vitamin B12, an essential nutrient required by the body to make red blood cells and maintain a healthy nervous system. It also plays a role in releasing energy from food and utilizing vitamin B11 (folate).
Why can't I get sufficient vitamin B12 in my diet?
Vitamin B12 is found naturally in various foods like meat, fish, eggs, and dairy products. Individuals who follow a vegetarian or vegan diet may not obtain adequate Vitamin B12 as it is not present in common plant-based sources like fruits, vegetables, and grains. Therefore, dietary deficiencies of vitamin B12 are more prevalent in vegetarians and vegans.

Vitamin B12 deficiency can lead to various symptoms, including fatigue and weakness, constipation, loss of appetite, weight loss, and megaloblastic anemia (an abnormal development of red blood cells). It can also cause nerve problems such as numbness or tingling in the hands and feet. Other signs may include balance issues, depression, confusion, dementia, poor memory, and mouth or tongue soreness.
Is Enerz ME Injection safe?
Enerz ME Injection is generally well-tolerated and considered safe. However, some individuals may experience rare side effects such as nausea, diarrhea, anorexia, and rash. If a rash develops, discontinue taking the medication immediately.
