There is no downtime with our Vitamin B12 shots in Chicago or any of our other injections. You should be able to return to your day with no negative side effects. There could be some soreness at the injection site, but this shouldn’t be debilitating.

Effects depend on the your individual diet and lifestyle. Typically the benefits become fully noticeable after 12 -24 hours but you may not directly feel any effects at all—this doesn’t mean the vitamin isn’t doing work deep inside your systems.

The duration of effects will depend on the individual but typically last on average of 1-2 weeks.

Frequency depends on your individual diet and lifestyle, on average it’s safe and common to get a weekly booster shot but unless consulted by your doctor, it’s not recommended to receive the same vitamin more often than 1x/week.

Lume uses only ingredients naturally found in your body or diet, which is the safest way to incorporate vitamin injections into your routine. As long as you have no pre-existing health conditions or vitamin allergies, vitamin injections are generally considered low risk if administered by a health professional. All medical services carry a risk, therefore it is important for the patient to understand the benefits and risks.
