Medicinal Vitamin Therapy (Intravenous)

Medicinal vitamin therapies introduced via intravenous infusions to support your body’s systems, enhance the therapeutic value of medically prescribed vitamins, for optimal health benefits.
At Main Street Medical, our doctors prescribe medical grade nutrients of the highest quality, which are administered in a safe clinical setting, with excellence of care by qualified health professionals.

How does vitamin therapy contribute to your health?

By using an intravenous vitamin method (IV drip), your body receives maximum nutritional benefit, as it does not pass through the digestive system. The vitamin interaction with your immune system, for example, is maximised by immediate introduction into the blood stream. The use of highest quality (medical grade) vitamins that are specifically formulated and administered based on your bodily health profile, work with your body’s natural defence and repair systems towards enhancing their effectiveness.

How can medicinal vitamin intravenous therapy help?

• Support health systems pre-surgery and assist recovery post-surgery 
• Supporting the immune system that is challenged by work/life stress
• Help in alleviating symptoms and facilitating recovery from common virus experienced with colds, influenza, Covid-19, and other inflammatory illnesses such as glandular fever.
• Reducing inflammation in patients undergoing various Cancer treatments: 

“The use of IV vitamin C is a safe supportive intervention to decrease inflammation in the patient and to improve symptoms related to antioxidant deficiency, disease processes, and side effects of standard cancer treatments.”
