Basis: General clinical experience with B12 and L-carnitine injections. Educational only, not medical advice.

Medication concerns

Documented interactions

Warfarin
L-carnitine has been reported to increase warfarin's effect (higher INR).
Thyroid medicine (levothyroxine)
L-carnitine may reduce thyroid hormone activity; tell the prescriber.
Metformin and acid reducers (omeprazole, famotidine)
These lower B12 absorption from food over time, one reason people use injectable B12.
Everything else you take, including supplements
Bring a full list of medicines and supplements to your pharmacist or clinician before starting.

Basis: Documented L-carnitine and vitamin B12 interactions (NIH/MedlinePlus dietary supplement references). Educational only, not medical advice. Never stop or change a prescribed medicine without your prescriber.
