Do I need a prescription or referral for a B12 shot?

No prescription or referral is needed. You can walk into any AG Urgent Care location in Brooklyn or Queens for a B12 injection. Our medical team will do a quick consultation to assess your needs before administering the shot.

How often should I get B12 injections?

The frequency depends on your individual B12 levels and health needs. Some patients benefit from weekly injections initially, then move to monthly maintenance shots. Your provider will recommend a schedule based on your specific situation.

Are B12 injections better than oral supplements?
