High-Dose Vitamin C for Cancer Supportive Therapy: What You Need to Know
🍊 High-Dose Vitamin C for Cancer Supportive Therapy: What You Need to Know
At Dr. Drip IV Hydration & Wellness, we believe that healing is most powerful when it’s personalized, holistic, and evidence-informed.
For patients navigating cancer—whether during conventional treatment or in remission—High-Dose Intravenous Vitamin C (HDIVC) has become an increasingly researched and sought-after supportive therapy.
🧬 What Is High-Dose Vitamin C Therapy?
Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) is a potent antioxidant. While small amounts taken orally support immune health, when given intravenously at high doses (25g–100g+), it acts very differently—functioning more like a pro-oxidant in cancer cells and a detoxifier in healthy cells.
Because IV administration bypasses the digestive system, we can achieve therapeutic blood levels that oral supplementation can’t.
🔬 How Can High-Dose Vitamin C Support Cancer Patients?
Though not a cure, HDIVC is used as an adjunctive therapy to support the body before, during, and after chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery.
Documented Benefits:
💥 May help slow cancer cell growth (especially in lab settings)
💪 Reduces inflammation and oxidative stress
🩸 Supports immune system and white blood cell function
🧠 Improves energy, appetite, and mood
🛡️ May reduce chemotherapy side effects (nausea, fatigue, neuropathy)
🧾 The Riordan Clinic and multiple studies have shown promise using HDIVC in integrative oncology settings.
🧪 Personalized Protocols = Safer, Smarter Support
At Dr. Drip, we don’t offer one-size-fits-all infusions. We tailor each Vitamin C protocol based on:
Your diagnosis and treatment stage
Current labs (especially G6PD status, kidney function, iron levels)
Overall health, goals, and other supportive therapies
We may combine Vitamin C with:
Glutathione for antioxidant synergy
Alpha Lipoic Acid for cellular repair
Hydration and nutrient support for energy and healing
Lab monitoring to track inflammation and immune trends
⚠️ Safety First: Do You Qualify?
Before receiving high-dose Vitamin C, we require:
A G6PD blood test (to ensure red blood cell safety)
Recent kidney function labs
A brief functional intake assessment
We collaborate with your oncologist when appropriate and ensure that our therapy doesn’t interfere with your current treatment plan.
