A method for treating amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and a therapeutic agent therefor are provided. The therapeutic agent comprising ultra-high doses of methylcobalamin (for example, from about 15 mg to about 500 mg per day) is administered to a patient with ALS intramuscularly, subcutaneously or intravenously for from about a week to about 2 years to ameliorate or improve both the clinical symptoms and an objective clinical measure in ALS or retard the muscle weakness caused by ALS.
