Bunalco Injection 1

Bunalco Injection 1 is used for managing the following conditions:

• Vitamin B12 deficiency, a condition that can lead to fatigue, weakness, and other health problems.

• Pernicious anaemia, an autoimmune condition that affects the body's ability to absorb vitamin B12.

• Megaloblastic anaemia, a blood disorder characterised by the production of unusually large, immature red blood cells.

• Peripheral neuropathy, a nerve disorder causing numbness, tingling, and weakness, often in the hands or feet.

Administer Bunalco Injection 1 as follows:

• The injection will be given by a doctor or nurse in a healthcare setting.

• It is generally administered either into a muscle (intramuscularly) or a vein (intravenously).

• Remember to keep all your follow-up appointments so your doctor can monitor your progress.

Bunalco Injection 1 can be administered intravenously or intramuscularly.

Bunalco Injection 1 contains methylcobalamin (1 mg). Here's how it works:

• Methionine Synthesis: Methylcobalamin acts as a cofactor for an enzyme called methionine synthase. This enzyme converts homocysteine into methionine, a process that is essential for protein synthesis and DNA methylation.

• Energy Production: The injection also supports the activity of L-methylmalonyl-CoA mutase, another enzyme. This one transforms L-methylmalonyl-CoA into succinyl-CoA, a key reaction in fatty acid metabolism which contributes to energy production within your cells.

• Store Bunalco Injection 1 in a cool, dry place.

• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight and extreme heat.

• Keep this medicine out of the reach and sight of children.

• Remember to check the expiry date and use the injection before it expires.

• Consume foods rich in vitamin B12 such as meat, fish, eggs, and fortified cereals. These can help manage symptoms associated with vitamin B12 deficiency which the injection is used to manage.

• If you're experiencing peripheral neuropathy, avoid activities that can exacerbate nerve pain or increase your risk of injury. For instance, wear comfortable shoes to prevent foot injuries.
