    Sub Q is great for B12. I'd personally keep the injections down to 1/2cc on the SubQ injection site ...

    I've never tried it, but I've read a handful of times where people who shot over 1/2mL had some form of negative experience.

    Thus, the general recommendation for SubQ seems to be half a mL max.

    As far as b12 into muscle or subq... I don't know really but I stick to IM for that sine I do 1mL. Haven't been doing it entirely long though. Maybe ill "convert"
