Vitamin-therapy Treatment Options
Medical & Non-Surgical Approaches
Oral supplements work fine for most people and are far cheaper. Diet changes often do more long-term good than any drip. IV therapy may make sense when absorption is impaired, after illness, or with confirmed deficiency. For general wellness, lifestyle changes usually outperform drips over time.
