High-Dose Vitamin C Therapy

What is High-Dose Vitamin C Therapy?

High-Dose Vitamin C Therapy is an advanced form of IV therapy that delivers pharmaceutical-grade Vitamin C directly into the bloodstream at concentrations far higher than what can be achieved through diet or supplements.

At Drip IV, we offer this powerful therapy to help clients achieve therapeutic plasma levels of Vitamin C that bypass the digestive system entirely. At these elevated concentrations, Vitamin C functions as more than a nutrient—it acts as a biological response modifier that supports immune function, reduces inflammation, and promotes overall vitality.

• What Makes High-Dose Vitamin C Therapy Different than Regular Vitamin C Supplements?

  Unlike oral supplements that can only raise Vitamin C levels slightly, High-Dose Vitamin C Therapy delivers the nutrient directly into the bloodstream, allowing levels to climb 20 to 200 times higher. At these elevated concentrations, Vitamin C takes on a therapeutic role.

  It begins to behave as a pro-oxidant within abnormal cells, creating oxidative stress that may disrupt their growth. It can also interfere with angiogenesis—the formation of new blood vessels that unhealthy cells often rely on.

  In addition, Vitamin C at these levels supports healthy collagen production for tissue and skin repair, and strengthens the body’s natural antioxidant defenses on a cellular level.

   

• Who Might Benefit from High-Dose Vitamin C Therapy?

  This therapy can be especially beneficial for individuals who want to support their immune system and reduce chronic fatigue. It may help speed recovery after physical stress or surgery, promote healthier skin through increased collagen synthesis, and ease ongoing inflammation. Some people turn to it during periods of illness or to aid in managing long-term wellness challenges.

  Others explore it as a supportive measure alongside conventional cancer care. Whatever the goal, every client at Drip IV receives a personalized evaluation to ensure this therapy is both safe and suited to their needs.

   

• How Does High-Dose Vitamin C Therapy Support Inflammation and Immunity?

  High-Dose Vitamin C Therapy is known for its anti-inflammatory effects. Clinical studies have reported measurable decreases in C-reactive protein (CRP) levels—an important marker of inflammation—after consistent sessions.

  It’s also been shown to reduce pro-inflammatory cytokines, which can otherwise overstimulate the immune system. These combined effects create a more balanced and resilient immune response, making this therapy a promising option for anyone struggling with inflammation or seeking long-term immune support.

• What Role Does High-Dose Vitamin C Play in Cancer Care?

  While Drip IV does not treat cancer, High-Dose Vitamin C Therapy is sometimes used as an adjunctive therapy for patients undergoing traditional cancer treatments. Research has shown that Vitamin C can target abnormal cells while leaving healthy ones unaffected. It may help reduce inflammation markers and improve overall comfort during treatment, including better sleep, appetite, and energy.

  Some clinical case studies suggest that patients using this therapy in combination with standard care have experienced a higher quality of life. As always, anyone considering this therapy alongside cancer treatment should consult their oncologist or healthcare provider.
