Hydroxocobalamin, also known as hydroxycobalamin, is a member of the class of compounds known as cobalamin derivatives. These organic compounds contain a corrin ring, a cobaltatom, and a nucleotide moiety. Cobalamin derivatives are actually derived from vitamin B12. Hydroxocobalamin is practically insoluble (in water) and a moderately acidic compound (based on its pKa). Hydroxocobalamin is formally rated as a possibly carcinogenic (IARC 2B) potentially toxic compound. Hydroxocobalamin is a drug used in the treatment of pernicious anemia and in the prevention and treatment of vitamin B12 deficiency arising from alcoholism, malabsorption, tapeworm infestation, celiac disease, hyperthyroidism, hepatic-biliary tract disease, persistent diarrhea, ileal resection, pancreatic cancer, renal disease, prolonged stress, vegan diets, macrobiotic diets, and other restrictive diets. Hydroxocobalamin is also used in the treatment of known or suspected cyanide poisoning.
