Hi,

Acneiform eruptions might occur after vitamin B12 injection as side effects. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis. I would recommend you to stop to take Vitamin B 12 injection. Take cap tretinoin 10 mg daily till the recovery of the lesions. Apply clindamycin lotion on the lesions.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
