Are they safe

Titration: There is generally no need for upward titration with B-complex vitamins as one might do with certain drugs, but if a patient is frail or known to react to injections, the provider may choose to start at a lower dose (for example 0.25-0.5 mL) and then increase to 1 mL as tolerated

The consequences extend beyond simple fatigue: B12 deficiency can trigger mood disturbances, cognitive decline, nerve damage, and compromised immune function
