Description
Betolvex contains vitamin B12. The medicine is given when you are deficient in the vitamin or if there is a risk that a vitamin deficiency will occur. The dose is determined by a doctor, who adjusts it individually for you. Vitamin B12 is a vital vitamin, which, among other things, is needed for normal cell division, normal blood formation and for the normal functioning of the nervous system. The vitamin is mainly found in animal foods such as fish, meat, shellfish, eggs, liver, milk and cheese. A deficiency of vitamin B12 can develop if it cannot be absorbed by the body from food. This can be due, for example, to a stomach or intestinal disease, intestinal surgery or the use of certain medicines.
