The dosage depends on the deficiency and what for you are consuming?

In the patients, problems such as numbness or tingling in the extremities, abnormal gait, memory loss, weakness of the limbs, changes in mood and personality and even fatigue, doses from 1000 mcg weekly to 5000 mcg three times weekly, given subcutaneously (through injections under the skin).

from 1000 mcg injected daily to 5000 mcg injected three times per week. To obtain a continuous and satisfactory level of improvement, we now recommend injections of 3000 mcg of cyanocobalamin every two to three days.

Take care and check the prescription of  your treating Physician.
