High-dose intravenous vitamin C delivers up to 7.5 g of ascorbic acid directly into the bloodstream — a concentration unreachable through oral supplementation due to intestinal absorption limits. Administered by medical personnel over 45 minutes at K+Clinic's Prague 5-Smíchov site, IV vitamin C may support immune function, accelerate recovery from illness or intensive training, and provide antioxidant protection during periods of high physical or psychological stress. Single sessions cost 1,100 Kč (discounted); 3-infusion courses 2,900 Kč; 5-infusion courses 4,500 Kč.
