Vitamin C treatment
Discussing the indication and potential benefits of treatment.
Vitamin C and symptoms
Vitamin C contributes to connective tissue formation and various metabolic processes. A balanced diet usually meets requirements. Non-specific symptoms such as tiredness cannot be attributed to vitamin C deficiency without assessment.
Benefits and limits of an infusion
Reliable benefits of vitamin C infusions for generally boosting immunity or performance in adequately nourished people have not been established. We first discuss whether there is a medical indication and whether a simpler treatment is suitable.
Considering risks
Infusions can cause injection-site reactions or intolerance, for example. Particular care is needed with kidney disease and certain metabolic disorders. Before possible treatment, we discuss existing conditions, medication, benefits, risks and any private costs.
Planning the next steps together
We explain findings clearly and discuss measures suited to your circumstances. If further tests or specialist input are needed, we help plan them. Please bring existing reports and an up-to-date list of medication and supplements.
Your appointment at the practice
Please bring existing medical reports and an up-to-date medication list. We discuss any special preparation, the exact scope and possible costs when arranging your appointment.
