HCG and B12

[furie5000]

I currently inject 250 iu of HCG on Mon/Wed/Friday. I also inject 500 mcg of B12 2x a week. Is it ok to inject the HCG and B12 in the same syringe?

You can if youre injecting your hCG Intramuscular. But most folks here choose Subcutaneously for hCG administration.

Thanks for the reply. I was under the impression that I could inject the B12 sub q, am I wrong? I do inject the HCG sub q.

B12 is administered IM bro.

Mick, not to be the spoiler here, but B12 is fine SubQ. Been doing it for years. Best to keep it 500mcg or less in adipose tissue injections.

Really?? Ive never heard of anyone administering B12 SubQ ?? Go figure. OP i apologize for the incorrect info.

Thank you very much for the lesson Vettester.

It's all good. Probably a lot of info out there that specifically says to administer IM only. Hell, I told my GP at Kaiser, that I inject test SubQ, and she said it would only work IM. Of course I don't go to Kaiser for my HRT, lol!

Since they are both injected sub q, do you see any issues with injecting them in the same syringe?

Thanks for the reply's.

Yes B12 can be done SubQ. It's right on the label of the bottle. Have had 2 different brands from CVS and both said IM or subQ.

We are always learning

To answer the question... I don't know for sure, but I don't see why not if they are both water based. It's something that you just might not get a definitive answer on, but you could/should run it by your doc. Worst case, theyll probably say try it and find out. lol

An interesting tidbit:

On both my brands of B12 it says "For Intramuscular or deep Subcutaneous use." I simply do my hCG SubQ injections in the adipose tissue.
