Why is there B12 in my tirzepatide?

Also asked: B12, vitamin b12, can I get it without B12, why is it mixed, glycine, why is my strength different Answer: Your compounded tirzepatide is prepared with vitamin B12 by the compounding pharmacy. It isn't an add-on you can toggle. It's part of that pharmacy's formulation.

Answer:

Some compounded medications may include vitamin B12 (or another added ingredient), depending on the formulation prescribed by your provider and the compounding pharmacy.

The specific formulation you receive is determined based on your prescription and the pharmacy fulfilling your order. If you have a preference for a formulation with or without an added vitamin, please let your provider or our support team know before your prescription is processed. We'll do our best to accommodate your preference when clinically appropriate and available.

If your medication's concentration or formulation differs from a previous prescription, your dosing instructions may also change. Always follow the dosing instructions provided with your prescription rather than comparing unit measurements between pharmacies.

If you have questions about your formulation or why a specific version was prescribed, please contact our support team, and we can arrange for the prescribing provider or pharmacy to review it with you.
