Hi,
Welcome to HCM!

Weakness at this age is most commonly due to nutritional deficiency as aged people tend to eat less that what is required for their body.

Neurobion is basically a multi vitamin injection, which will help replenish the vitamin deficiency. So yes, it will be effective.

I'd also advise you to get her hemoglobin level tested as Anemia could be another reason of her weakness, in which case she'll require Iron tablets/injections.

Hope this information helps. Feel free to ask if you have any doubts.

With warm regards,
Dr. Sridhar Reddy
