IV Vitamin Therapy
Duration
30 min
A single-ingredient intravenous glutathione infusion administered by a licensed physician. Glutathione is a tripeptide antioxidant produced naturally by the body and involved in detoxification pathways, immune cell function, and oxidative stress management. The IV route delivers glutathione directly into the bloodstream, bypassing digestive breakdown that limits oral supplementation.
The Glutathione IV Drip at RE:BERRY Clinic is the clinic's core intravenous offering, delivering reduced L-glutathione directly into the bloodstream through a peripheral IV line. Glutathione is a tripeptide composed of glutamic acid, cysteine, and glycine, and it functions as one of the body's primary intracellular antioxidants. It plays roles in neutralising reactive oxygen species, regenerating other antioxidants such as vitamins C and E, and supporting phase II liver detoxification pathways. Oral glutathione supplements have limited bioavailability because the molecule is broken down by digestive enzymes before absorption. Intravenous administration bypasses the gastrointestinal tract entirely, achieving plasma concentrations that oral dosing cannot replicate. This pharmacokinetic advantage is the primary rationale for IV delivery of glutathione. The session takes place in the clinic's infusion area, where patients sit in comfortable chairs during the drip. A physician establishes the IV line and monitors the infusion. Vital signs are checked before the session begins. The infusion itself typically runs 20 to 30 minutes depending on the concentration and flow rate. RE:BERRY's Myeongdong location makes this service particularly convenient for visitors who are already in the area for shopping or sightseeing. The clinic operates 365 days a year with extended hours until 8:00 PM, and walk-ins are accepted when capacity allows. Staff communicate in eight languages, so international visitors can discuss their goals and any medical history directly without interpretation barriers. The clinic recommends glutathione drips for general wellness maintenance and as a complement to travel recovery. Many visitors pair it with vitamin C for an enhanced antioxidant effect, though the standalone glutathione session is available for those who prefer a shorter, focused treatment.
