Where do you give yourself a B12 shot?

Vitamin B12 shots need to be injected intramuscular, which means deep in the muscle tissue. The upper arm muscle, buttocks muscle and thigh muscle are some of the places in a human body where B12 can be injected.

Vitamin B12 injections can be used to aid in weight loss. They should be administered at least once a week when on a regular injection schedule. Although the injections can be self-administered, the safest way is to consult a medical professional. Before self-administering a B12 shot, the person must clean the injection area with an alcohol wipe and follow the medical instructions.
