Bloemfontein - The Vitamin B shot can no longer be administered without a doctor’s prescription.
 
This after the health department earlier this year made changes to the scheduling of injections.
 
Pharmacist, Wim Grobbelaar explains the implications.

The Vitamin B injection can still be administered at pharmacies that have a clinic system with a doctor or a nurse with a prescription licence.
 
The oral Vitamin B pills are still available without a prescription.
