Vitamin B12 injections bypass the digestive tract and deliver cobalamin directly into muscle or fatty tissue, which is why healthcare providers often recommend them for people with pernicious anemia, malabsorption conditions, gastric bypass history, strict plant-based diets, or age-related B12 decline
Butaphosphan is quickly absorbed at the injection site and it is distributed quickly after intramuscular or subcutaneous administration

Its availability is limited, and it is still under investigation for its long-term efficacy and safety
