High Dose Vitamin C IV Therapy

Creating a pro-oxidant effect to support cancer and work alongside conventional therapies.

High-Dose Vitamin C IV Therapy

Our high-dose vitamin C IV therapy is designed to provide a personalised, complementary solution to work alongside your cancer treatment. Our IV infusions are tailored to your unique needs to ensure you receive the highest level of care.

What is high-dose vitamin C IV therapy?

High-dose vitamin C IV therapy is a method used to boost your body’s vitamin C levels. Vitamin C is an essential nutrient that is vital for your health and wellbeing, as it helps support collagen production, wound healing and healthy bones and teeth. Without enough of it, our bodies can also struggle to grow and repair tissues effectively. 

Our high dose vitamin C IV therapy delivers pure vitamin C through an intravenous line (a soft, flexible tube inserted into a vein in your arm). We provide you with every comfort you need during your therapy so you can stay relaxed throughout. 

When we administer vitamin C through an IV, it can reach higher levels in your blood than if you were to take it orally. This means you get to reap all of the benefits that this vitamin can bring. It’s designed to support your body when going through Western-style cancer treatment and increasing research is showing that vitamin C may have anticancer properties.

Our high-dose vitamin C IV therapy takes between 30 minutes and one hour to complete.

Key benefits for cancer patients

High-dose vitamin C IV therapies can offer numerous potential benefits to cancer patients. It also does not interfere with any ongoing cancer treatment and can be a good way to increase your nutrient intake. 

Some of the benefits of receiving high-dose vitamin C IV therapy can include: 

  • Reduced side effects of cancer treatment – for example, you may experience an increased appetite and reduced level of nausea
  • Potentially slowed growth of cancerous tissues and cells
  • Less fatigue and boosted energy levels
  • Improved red blood cell production
  • Increased white blood cell production to support your immune system
  • Improved body tissue repair
  • Reduced oxidative stress (an imbalance within the cells of your body that can cause damage to your organs and tissues)

These benefits may support your wellbeing when undergoing cancer treatment and help you regain some control over cancer treatment side effects. 

Are there any risks of high-dose vitamin C IV therapy?

High-dose vitamin C IV therapy has a very low risk of side effects. However, it can be problematic if you have kidney disease or kidney failure. Therefore, our team will work with you to determine whether this therapy is right for you.

Our patient stories

One of our patients, Jemima, came to us after unexpectedly being diagnosed with breast cancer. We created a personalised therapy plan to complement her treatment that included vitamin C IV therapy. 

Jemima has since let us know that she is “feeling well” and that “her lesion is under control”. She said: 

“The medical team at Wellbeing Medical Group have offered constant support to me during these past few months, overseeing all my clinical needs and offering emotional support and strength.”

Supporting research for high-dose vitamin C IV therapy

Many studies have been conducted on the effectiveness of high-dose vitamin C IV therapy, and the results support its potential benefits. 

For example, one study found that high-dose vitamin C therapy may induce cell death in cancer cells. 

Vitamin C has also been shown to support cancer patients who are in more advanced stages of the disease by improving their overall quality of life and reducing treatment side effects. 

A study in Germany has also shown that high-dose vitamin C IV therapy reduced side effects of chemo and radiotherapy, such as nausea, loss of appetite, fatigue and sleep disorders in breast cancer patients. No side effects were reported during this study either, highlighting just how effective this therapy may be. 

Many other studies have shown encouraging anti-cancer activity of Vitamin C at high doses in various cancer types. The most investigated have been leukaemia, colon cancer, melanoma, pancreatic cancer and prostate cancer. 

Similar results have been described for the treatment of:

  • Non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) 
  • Breast cancer
  • Ovarian cancer
  • Hepatocellular carcinoma 
  • Malignant mesothelioma
  • Thyroid cancer
  • Oral squamous cell carcinoma
  • Neuroblastoma
  • Glioma (including the difficult-to-treat glioblastoma multiforme)

More research shows mounting evidence indicating that Vitamin C has the potential to be a potent anti-cancer agent when administered intravenously and in high doses). 

Early-phase clinical trials have confirmed the safety and efficacy of intravenous vitamin C in eradicating tumour cells of various cancer types and reducing side effects of treatments like chemotherapy. 

High-dose Vitamin C administered has been shown to be safe and well-tolerated in cancer patients and reduce pain and improve quality of life in the palliative care setting.
