(Sterile Lipotropic and B-Complex Injectable for Fat Metabolism, Liver Health, and Energy Support)
Targeted Lipotropic Formula with Vitamin B12 for Weight Management and Metabolic Optimization
MIC + B12 Injection – 30 mL is a sterile, preservative-free compounded formula combining the powerful fat-metabolizing effects of Methionine, Inositol, and Choline (MIC) with the metabolic and neurological support of Vitamin B12 (as methylcobalamin). Designed for intramuscular (IM) administration under professional guidance, this formulation is ideal for use in medical weight loss, functional medicine, integrative wellness programs, and metabolic therapy protocols.
This formulation delivers a synergistic blend that targets lipid metabolism, hepatic function, and cellular energy production, making it highly effective for patients undergoing fat-loss regimens, recovering from nutritional deficiencies, or requiring enhanced methylation support.

Mechanism of Action
Lipotropic Complex (MIC)
MIC stands for Methionine, Inositol, and Choline—a trio of nutrients known for their lipotropic (fat-loving) activity. These agents help the liver break down and transport fat, prevent fat accumulation, and support methylation, a key biochemical pathway for detoxification, mood balance, and DNA repair.
- Methionine: A sulfur-containing amino acid involved in methylation, glutathione synthesis, and fat metabolism
- Inositol: A B-vitamin-like compound that enhances insulin sensitivity, supports cell signaling, and contributes to lipid transport
- Choline: Crucial for cell membrane integrity, fat mobilization, and neurotransmitter synthesis (acetylcholine)
Together, MIC components stimulate the liver to process and export fats more efficiently, prevent hepatic steatosis, and enhance weight loss outcomes.
Methylcobalamin (Vitamin B12)
B12 supports neurological health, red blood cell formation, and energy production through:
- Coenzyme roles in homocysteine metabolism
- Activation of methionine synthase in DNA methylation
- Support for mood, cognition, and nervous system resilience
Methylcobalamin is the active, bioidentical form of B12, with superior absorption and longer biological activity compared to cyanocobalamin.
Clinical Applications
MIC + B12 Injection is ideal for inclusion in:
1. Medical Weight Loss Programs
- Promotes fat mobilization from the liver and adipose tissue
- Supports metabolic efficiency and detoxification
- Reduces fatigue and energy crashes often associated with dieting
2. Liver and Detox Support
- Aids in clearing excess lipids from the liver (beneficial for NAFLD)
- Enhances methylation-based detox of xenobiotics and estrogen metabolites
- Improves glutathione production and antioxidant capacity
3. Neurological and Mood Support
- May assist in management of brain fog, mild depression, and neuropathy
- Supports mood regulation and mental clarity in high-stress individuals
- Effective in post-bariatric surgery recovery and nutrient repletion
4. Performance and Energy Optimization
- Reduces fatigue and sluggishness
- Enhances oxygen utilization and stamina
- Useful adjunct for athletes in cutting cycles or low-carb diets
Dosage and Administration
- Route: Intramuscular (gluteal or deltoid injection preferred)
- Typical dose: 1–2 mL, 1–3 times per week based on clinical goals
- Best results achieved as part of a structured nutritional and lifestyle plan
Note: Avoid IV use unless specifically compounded for intravenous compatibility.
Safety and Considerations
Generally well tolerated, with minimal side effects when administered properly.
- Possible mild effects: local injection site soreness, slight flushing
- Rare: nausea, dizziness, allergic reaction
- Contraindications: hypersensitivity to any component; caution in methylation disorders (use only under supervision)
No known drug interactions with oral medications, but B12 may mask B9 (folate) deficiency—combined B-vitamin status should be assessed periodically.
Storage and Handling
- Store refrigerated at 2–8°C
- Do not freeze
- Use within 28 days of first puncture
- Maintain aseptic technique during use
Ideal for Use In:
- Weight loss and metabolic clinics
- Functional and integrative medicine practices
- Wellness and IV therapy centers
- Aesthetic clinics and hormone optimization programs
- Post-surgical or post-bariatric nutritional repletion
MIC + B12 Injection – 30 mL offers a reliable and targeted solution to enhance fat metabolism, restore nutrient balance, and improve cellular energy, making it a foundational tool in comprehensive wellness and metabolic care protocols.
