Vitamin C
Vitamin C is a dietary supplement and nutrient found in many fruits and vegetables. Our bodies cannot make vitamin C on their own, but it is an antioxidant that has been shown to help prevent damage to cells caused by free radicals, as well as playing a key role in making collagen (which makes our skin youthful and glowing). Other benefits may include:
- Boost immune system function and strength.
- Improve chronic exhaustion and fatigue.
- Aid in detoxification.
- Reduce inflammation.
- Decrease oxidative stress.
Vitamin B
There are 8 types of vitamin B, which help our body in its many functions used in energy production, as well in many different areas of our vision, skin and overall health. B-group vitamins can be found in foods, however, are easily destroyed, so supplementation, such as Vitamin therapy in Melbourne is often sought out. Some of the benefits of vitamin B may include:
- Growth of healthy red blood cells.
- Proper digestion and appetite levels.
- Production of hormones.
- Cardiovascular health and efficiency.
- Central nervous system health benefits.
- Immune system support
- Skin health benefits.
- Fat metabolism.
Magnesium
Magnesium is a mineral our bodies can’t make on its own, but aids in the health of our muscles, nerves, bones and blood sugar levels. A lack of magnesium can look like headaches, loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting, fatigue and weakness, but can also show more severe symptoms. The top benefits of magnesium supplementation include:
- Blood pressure regulation.
- Improved circulation.
- Reduced fatigue.
- Less muscle pain.
- Improved sleep.
Zinc
Our bodies use zinc for a number of everyday functions and systems, including wound healing, taste and smell, and more. However, it can’t make zinc on its own, so it relies on food and supplements to get enough. Some of the benefits of zinc supplementation includes:
- Cold recovery.
- Tissue repair.
- Maintaining vision in older age.
- Soothing inflammation.
Antioxidants
This is a substance made from amino acids produced by our liver that helps build and repair tissue, as well as many other benefits. It’s been suggested it may aid with the signs of ageing, alcohol use disorder and many conditions, with varying outcomes. What are the benefits of glutathione? Other benefits may include:
- Pain relief thanks to reduced inflammation.
- Increased energy levels.
- Improved concentration and focus.
- Improved nervous system.
- Detoxification of harmful substances from the body.

Frequently asked questions about intravenous vitamin therapy in Melbourne
What does IV drip therapy do?
IV drip therapy, or intravenous therapy, is a method of administering nutrients and hydration directly into the bloodstream, allowing for immediate absorption into the body. By bypassing the digestive system and through administration into the bloodstream, the nutrients can go directly to the organs. This results in up to a 90% to 100% absorption rate, which provides you with higher benefits than orally taking vitamins, which only have a possible 20% to 50% absorption rate.
Who should not get an IV infusion?
People with renal disease, high blood pressure, heart conditions, and women who are pregnant or breastfeeding, should be cautious of and potentially avoid IV infusion. Those with vitamin or mineral deficiency, or taking medications, should also be cautious. It’s best to consult your medical practitioner if you fall into or believe your fall into one of these categories.
What is vitamin C IV therapy good for?
This infusion provides vitamin C directly into the bloodstream, which may assist in supporting normal vitamin C levels in individuals who may benefit from supplementation.
How long do the effects of IV therapy last?
The effects of IV therapy can last between a few days to a few weeks, however, results vary from person to person. Effects typically become fully noticeable within 24 to 48 hours after the infusion. Some people report feeling immediate effects of IV drip therapy.
