Is IV Therapy Able to Help Cancer Patients?

For patients who have been through chemotherapy treatment, you might have heard about the benefits of IV Therapy.

Many of cancer patients suffer from hypovitaminosis, a deficiency of nutrients caused by degenerative disease or medications.

Therapeutic results are difficult to achieve with oral vitamins in chronic disease and cancer patients. Cancer patients need high doses of bioavailable nutrients that are instantly accessible to the organs, tissues, and cells. 

IV Therapy Can Deliver Needed Nutrients


If a patient were to ingest therapeutic dosages of cancer treating nutrients, they would likely develop unpleasant side effects like diarrhea and would not be able to absorb the critical levels of nutrients.

Infusion (IV) therapy is the process of providing you with fluid or nutritional supplements directly into the bloodstream. Proper administration of IV drug therapy is provided by trained nursing staff under the supervision of a doctor.

Intravenous vitamins have a direct pharmacological effect and are more effective than most oral and intramuscular vitamins.

Intravenous nutrients can instantly replenish vitamins to normal levels and speed patient healing and recovery time. 

Rehydration for Cancer Patients


A number of chronic conditions and cancers leave patients prone to dehydration. These decreases in electrolytes and physiological fluid can severely impair cells of the body.

For this reason, Intravenous nutrients and electrolytes are delivered via IV Therapy which quickly hydrates the body. Therefore, IV Therapy for Cancer patients is important for hydration and nutrient absorption.

Vitamin C Infusion for Cancer Patients

There have been recent medical studies around the benefits of Vitamin C IV Therapy assisting patients with cancer.

There's still no evidence that vitamin C alone can cure cancer, but researchers are studying whether it might boost the effectiveness of other cancer treatments, such as chemotherapy and radiation therapy.
