You did not specify your exact B12 level, severe deficiency requires injections, less severe, oral tablets.
Since you got a tablet prescribed, you can simply ask for "methylcobalamin" tablets from your pharmacist. Mecofol, Meconerv, and Nurokind are some companies you can choose from.
Next Steps
Just ask for "Methylcobalamin" capsules.
Health Tips
Check the dosage you were prescribed and take the same dose.

Dear Practo User.
Thanks for sending across your query.
If B29 is unavailable, you can try alternatives like Neurobion, Bevon, or Methycobal—all effective for B12 deficiency. These support nerve health, boost energy, and improve overall well-being. Ask your pharmacist or doctor for the best fit.
Next Steps
For further details you can consult with me in Dr. Monga medi clinic or consult me directly by taking a consultation on Practo.

First of all ma'am, I would suggest you to tell us a bit more about any symptoms you're experiencing like weakness throughout the day, or weakness while doing daily chores then I would suggest you to get a baseline blood test done to rule out any deficiency of any of these vitamins and furthermore we can plan on starting with multivitamins.
We can start with Tab. Supradyn one tablet daily for 4 weeks preferably after breakfast/ meals.
Next Steps
Do get a baseline blood test done to detect the levels of these vitamins and other trace elements before initiating oral multivitamins and also avoid self- medication.
Health Tips
Avoid taking multivitamins on empty stomach so as to prevent mild gastric problems and other side effects.
Thanks & Regards
