Epsom & St Helier LOCAL DECISION
BLACK drug
The committee agreed that the evidence base using vitamin B12 injections to help improve the symptoms of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS) and Myalgic Encephalopathy (ME)was weak, long term safety was unknown and the treatment of CFS and ME with vitamin B12 was not currently supported by NICE.
The request to use it in the Trust or to recommend GP’s prescribe vitamin B12 in this patient cohort was rejected.
However it was recognised that a trial would be useful in strengthening the evidence base.
