What are B-Ject 100s?

· Vitamins are naturally occurring substances necessary for many processes in the body. Vitamins are found in the foods we eat.

· B-Ject 100s are combinations of vitamins in tablets, capsules, liquids, and injections. B-Ject 100s are used to treat vitamin shortages in the body that may occur because of illness, pregnancy, poor nutrition, decreased absorption of foods through the stomach, and many other circumstances.

· B-Ject 100s may also be used for purposes other than those listed in this medication guide.

 

Who should not take B-Ject 100s?

· B-Ject 100s are generally considered to be safe for use during pregnancy and breast-feeding. Special prenatal vitamins are available and are important for the healthy development of a baby.
