A usual treatment is a weekly injection of 1000 mcg of vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin or cyanocobalamin) for four to six weeks, followed by monthly maintenance if necessary. A B12 level of 140 pg/ml suggests deficiency. Your doctor should clarify the precise timing based on your symptoms and degree of follow-up.
