Vitamin B12 with GS-441524: when supportive care may help
Vitamin B12 (cobalamin) can be considered as part of veterinary supportive care when a cat has confirmed B12 deficiency or problems with nutrient absorption. It does not treat FIP, replace antiviral GS-441524, or guarantee faster recovery; its benefit in cats without a deficiency remains uncertain.
FIP Cure Plus lists GS-441524 injection formulations with added vitamin B12: 20 mg/ml with B12 and 30 mg/ml with B12. A veterinarian should determine the appropriate GS-441524 treatment and whether B12 is needed; do not change the dose or combine injections yourself.
