Lipotropic injections are used by many individuals as a weight loss therapy. Compared with stimulants, lipotropic injections contain more beneficial nutrients, such as vitamin B12, and carry fewer damaging side effects. Lipotropic injections, also called B12 injections, contain vitamin B12 supplemented by lipotropic agents, normally choline or inositol. A course of weight loss treatment utilizing lipotropic injections should be supervised by a certified physician or medical practitioner.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Physician contact information
  • Local pharmacy contact information
  1. Step 1

    Contact your physician and ask him if he would consider prescribing lipotropic injections for weight loss. B12 injections are not a widely established medical practice, and some physicians may refuse to prescribe them. If your physician does not prescribe lipotropic injections, contact other area physicians or weight loss clinics employing a certified medical practitioner.

  2. Step 2

    Contact your local pharmacy to ensure that they can fill prescriptions for lipotropic injections. Again, B12 injections are not widely used for medicinal purposes, and some pharmacies may not fill prescriptions. Continue contacting local pharmacies until you find one that will accept lipotropic injection prescriptions.

  3. Step 3

    Make an appointment with your physician or medical practitioner. At the appointment, discuss your health needs with your physician. Keep your mind open to any other treatment options suggested by the physician as a more suitable weight loss alternative. Medical conditions may make lipotropic injections ineffective or even harmful to some people.

  4. Step 4

    Obtain a prescription from your physician for lipotropic injections.

  5. Step 5

    Submit the lipotropic injection prescription to your local pharmacy.

  6. Step 6

    Return to the pharmacy to obtain your order after your prescription has been filled.

Tips & Warnings
  • Exercise better dietary choices and spend time on rigorous physical activity to enhance the benefits of lipotropic treatment.
