Using base64 encode and decode to store user data in database

In order to prevent SQL injection, can one simply base64 encode the
data and store that? Then it can be decoded when I need to display it
on a website. I understand that this means that the data will not be
searchable, and that I still must sanitize it before printing it on
the site. Are there any other drawbacks or things to be aware of?
Thanks.
