Lipo-B (Cyanocobalamin/MIC)
Lipotropic compounds that support liver function and fat processing, combined with cyanocobalamin (B12) for energy.
Medically reviewed by Dr. Jonathan Snipes, MD. Last reviewed May 6, 2026.
What It Is
Lipo-B is a lipotropic injection containing cyanocobalamin (B12), methionine, inositol, and choline (MIC). These nutrients support your body's natural fat metabolism pathways.
How It Works
MIC compounds help your liver process fats more efficiently, while cyanocobalamin (B12) supports energy production. Together they optimize your body's fat-burning processes.
Who It's For
Anyone on a weight management protocol who wants to support their body's fat metabolism. Excellent add-on to GLP-1 therapy or standalone for metabolic support.
Who Should Avoid It
Generally very well-tolerated. Avoid if allergic to any component. Safe for most patients.

Common questions about Lipo-B (Cyanocobalamin/MIC)
- What is Lipo-B and what is it for?
- Lipo-B is a compounded injectable that combines methionine, inositol, and choline (the "MIC" complex) with vitamin B-12 (cyanocobalamin) in a single subcutaneous injection. The MIC blend is associated with hepatic fat metabolism support; the B-12 supports red blood cell production and methylation pathways. Lipo-B is most often prescribed as a weekly support shot during a GLP-1 weight-loss protocol or as a stand-alone metabolic-support injection.
- Does Lipo-B accelerate fat loss?
- MIC injections have a long history of compounding-clinic use for metabolic support but limited large-scale randomized trial data on fat-loss endpoints specifically. The mechanism (lipotropic support of hepatic fat metabolism plus B-12 cofactor support) is plausible. In practice, Lipo-B is used as an adjunct to a real caloric deficit or GLP-1 protocol rather than as a stand-alone fat-loss drug.
- How is Lipo-B dosed?
- Standard protocols deliver one 1 mL subcutaneous or intramuscular injection once per week. Optimal Balance Pharmacy compounds Lipo-B in both 10 mL and 30 mL multi-dose vials against RxPepsDirect prescriptions, each carrying a 90-day beyond-use date; your provider sets the schedule and the vial size. The price shown on this page is the 10 mL vial, which holds ten 1 mL doses, roughly ten weeks at weekly dosing, so on that schedule you finish the vial well inside its 90-day date. The 30 mL vial holds thirty doses, more than a 90-day date allows at weekly dosing, so it suits more frequent schedules. The beyond-use date printed on your own label is the authority for the vial you receive.
- Where do I inject Lipo-B?
- Subcutaneous injection into the abdomen, upper outer thigh, or back of the upper arm using a 31-gauge, 5/16-inch (8 mm) needle on a U-100 insulin syringe (1 mL is the standard injection volume). Sterile syringes are included with every RxPepsDirect shipment. Rotate sites between injections.
- How is Lipo-B supplied?
- Compounded by Optimal Balance Pharmacy under a 503A patient-specific prescription. Ships pre-reconstituted and ready to inject in a multi-dose vial, either 10 mL or 30 mL depending on what your provider prescribes, with a 90-day beyond-use date. Every batch is tested by Eagle Analytical Services; the Certificate of Analysis is published on this product page, and a report may reference either vial size. Refrigerate after first puncture and follow the beyond-use date printed on your label.
