Abstract. Serum B 12 activity has been controlled frequently after one and/or two series of five i.m. injections of 1 mg hydroxocobalamin (OHB 12 ) on alternate days followed by injection of 1 mg OHB 12 every three months for up to four years. Results from 23 patients with B 12 deficiency indicated that one series of injections followed by four injections of 1 mg OHB 12 a year is suitable for initial and maintenance therapy.
