Mecotec 500mg Injection

Mecotec 500mg Injection is an injection made by Pharmatec Pakistan Ltd that contains Mecobalamin 500mg, an active form of vitamin B12. It is used for vitamin B12 deficiency, peripheral neuropathy, diabetic nerve pain, numbness and tingling in the hands and feet, and megaloblastic anaemia. Pack size: 10.

Uses of Mecotec 500mg Injection

Mecotec 500mg Injection is used to correct vitamin B12 deficiency and to support nerve health. Doctors commonly recommend it for peripheral neuropathy, including nerve damage linked to diabetes, which can cause burning, numbness or tingling in the hands and feet. It is also used in megaloblastic anaemia caused by low vitamin B12.

How Mecotec 500mg Injection works

Mecobalamin (methylcobalamin) is the form of vitamin B12 that the body uses directly in nerve cells. It helps maintain the protective myelin coating around nerves, supports nerve repair and is needed to make healthy red blood cells. Improvement in nerve symptoms is gradual and may take several weeks.

Possible side effects

Mecotec 500mg Injection is generally well tolerated. Side effects are uncommon, but some people may notice:

• Mild nausea or stomach upset
• Loss of appetite
• Headache
• Skin rash or itching

Seek medical help if you develop signs of an allergic reaction, such as swelling of the face, lips or throat, or difficulty breathing.

Precautions and warnings

• Tell your doctor if you are allergic to vitamin B12 (cobalamin) or cobalt.
• Numbness, tingling or weakness can have several causes, so get them checked by a doctor rather than treating them on your own for a long time.
• If you have diabetes, keep following your diabetes treatment; Mecotec 500mg Injection supports the nerves but does not control blood sugar.
• If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, ask your doctor before using it.

Storage

Store as directed on the pack, protected from light. Injections should only be prepared and given by a doctor, nurse or other trained healthcare professional. Keep all medicines out of the reach of children.
