Zusammenfassung:Compositions, methods and kits for treating victims of carbon monoxide and/or cyanide poisoning and/or nitric acid-induced vasoplagia are provided. The compositions comprise reduced forms of Vitamin B12 such as reduced hydroxocobalamin or reduced cobinamide, and typically comprise at least one reducing agent (e.g. ascorbic acid). The compositions are generally produced, stored and delivered under reducing, usually anaerobic, conditions in order to preserve the desired oxidation state when introduced into the blood stream of a recipient.
