High-Dose Intravenous Vitamin C (HDIVC) for Cancer Patients

At the Famicare Specialty Center, we understand the challenges faced by cancer patients during their treatment journey. High-Dose Intravenous Vitamin C (HDIVC) therapy has emerged as a promising adjunctive treatment, offering potential benefits for individuals undergoing various cancer therapies. This innovative approach aims to enhance treatment outcomes, manage symptoms, and improve overall quality of life.

What is HDIVC?

HDIVC involves administering high doses of vitamin C directly into the bloodstream, achieving pharmacological concentrations that cannot be attained through oral supplementation. This method allows vitamin C to exert its powerful antioxidant properties, potentially promoting apoptosis (cell death) in cancer cells and enhancing the immune response against tumors.

Benefits of HDIVC for Cancer Patients

Enhanced Treatment Outcomes: Studies suggest that combining HDIVC with standard chemotherapy may improve overall survival rates and reduce treatment-related toxicities. For instance, recent trials have indicated that patients receiving HDIVC alongside chemotherapy experience better quality of life and fewer side effects4 5.
Symptom Management: HDIVC can help alleviate common symptoms associated with cancer and its treatments, such as fatigue, pain, and nausea. By improving energy levels and reducing discomfort, patients may find it easier to cope with their treatment regimen.
Complementary Therapy: As an adjunct therapy, HDIVC can be integrated into existing treatment plans, providing additional support without interfering with conventional therapies. This holistic approach empowers patients to take an active role in their health.
Improved Quality of Life: Many patients report feeling better overall when incorporating HDIVC into their treatment plan. The therapy may help boost mood, enhance physical well-being, and foster a sense of control during a challenging time.

Who Can Benefit from HDIVC?

HDIVC is suitable for:

Patients undergoing chemotherapy or radiation therapy who are seeking complementary treatments.
Individuals diagnosed with various cancers looking for ways to manage symptoms and improve their quality of life.
Those interested in exploring integrative approaches to cancer care.

Sweet Words From Patient's

Hear What Our Patients Are Saying About Our Team.

I was diagnosed with Cancer endometrium...

I was diagnosed with Cancer endometrium in July 2018. Dr Sujata Mittal did wonderful surgery and at the same time taught me to be disease free. I weighed 94 kg before surgery and had diabetes, hypertension, asthma and hypothyroidism. Her nutritional program helped me in reducing 10 kg before surgery. Postoperatively, I reduced another 14 kg. I now understand that this will help in reducing the chances of recurrence. I am also without anti diabetic drugs and hypothyroid drugs. My dosage of hypertensive medications are reduced considerably. I am able to step up and step down from stairs too.
