A high-dose Vitamin C infusion involves administering large quantities of vitamin C directly into the bloodstream via an intravenous drip. An IV infusion allows for more vitamin C to get into the blood stream and be absorbed - unlike oral intake which needs to go through the gut. When we take vitamin c supplements by mouth, absorption is limited and dosages above 1000mg can cause severe stomach upset and gastrointestinal issues. But IV high dose vitamin c bypasses the digestive system, allowing for higher concentrations of vitamin C to be delivered directly to the cells and tissues. This can provide potent antioxidant effects, support the immune system, enhance collagen production, and assist in detoxification.

You should only get intravenous vitamin C from a trained professional or nurse. We are trained in all areas and have been practicing for 14+ years. It is important to get treatment from a nurse for:
Safety: High-dose vitamin C infusions need careful monitoring, especially since doses can be much higher than those typically consumed. A trained nurse can ensure the proper dosage and avoid potential complications like kidney strain or reactions.
Sterile Technique: Administering an IV infusion requires sterile equipment and methods to avoid infection. A nurse ensures proper hygiene and technique.
Monitoring and Adjustments: A healthcare professional can assess your reaction to the treatment and adjust the dose accordingly. If adverse effects occur, a trained nurse will be able to handle the situation appropriately.
What is the Cost of a Vitamin C IV Drip?
The price of the IV drip depends on the dosage administered. We would start the dosage at 10mg for safety. A 10mg vitamin C drip is £160.
