why is my b12 still low after injections Injection – When It Worth It and What Can You Feel One Dose? How Quickly Does B12 Shot

(January 1988)

As a GLP-1/GIP/glucagon receptor agonist, it may theoretically delay gastric emptying, which is a class-related effect that could affect the absorption of orally administered medicines

There is no mechanism by which additional B12 causes the body to use stored fat as fuel

Setting Realistic Expectations for Patients Transparent patient communication is critical in aesthetic medicine

Standard reconstitution (10mg/ml) Most common protocol: 50mg GHK-Cu powder Add 5ml bacteriostatic water Creates 10mg/ml concentration Easy math for dosing How to calculate doses: 1mg dose = 0.1ml (10 units on insulin syringe) 2mg dose = 0.2ml (20 units) 3mg dose = 0.3ml (30 units) Total doses: 25 doses at 2mg each Why this concentration works: Simple calculations Easy to measure Standard for anti-aging protocols Fits insulin syringe well Alternative reconstitution (5mg/ml) More dilute option: 50mg GHK-Cu powder Add 10ml bacteriostatic water Creates 5mg/ml concentration Dose calculations: 1mg dose = 0.2ml (20 units) 2mg dose = 0.4ml (40 units) 3mg dose = 0.6ml (60 units) Total doses: 25 doses at 2mg each Why use 5mg/ml: Larger injection volume (some prefer) Easier to measure precisely Less concentrated (gentler on tissue) Good for beginners High concentration option (20mg/ml) Concentrated protocol: 50mg GHK-Cu powder Add 2.5ml bacteriostatic water Creates 20mg/ml concentration Dose calculations: 2mg dose = 0.1ml (10 units) 3mg dose = 0.15ml (15 units) 4mg dose = 0.2ml (20 units) When to use: Want smaller injection volume Using higher doses (3-5mg) Experienced users Prefer concentrated solutions Recommendation: Start with 10mg/ml (50mg + 5ml water) - simplest and most versatile
