Hi,
I would not suggest any alternative if my patient is doing good on meganeuron od plus. Besides Vitamin B12, this drug has other ingredients like pyridoxine, folic acid and others that will also help in your pain and numbness.
If vitamin B12 deficiency is the only problem, then you can go for injectable forms that can be administered once weekly or once monthly.
You can discuss the above information with your care giver. Thanks for writing in Healthcaremagic.
