Why intravenous is more effective than oral medication?

Updated: Feb 28, 2023

Intravenous (IV) medication delivery can be more effective than oral medication in certain situations because it delivers the medication directly into the bloodstream, allowing it to quickly and efficiently reach the target organs or tissues. This is because oral medications must first pass through the digestive system and the liver, where they can be partially broken down and lose some of their potency before reaching the bloodstream.


IV therapy can also provide a more controlled delivery of medication. With oral medications, it can be difficult to determine the exact amount of medication that is absorbed and utilized by the body, whereas IV therapy allows for precise dosing.

Furthermore, in some cases, oral medication may not be effective or appropriate. For example, if a person is unable to swallow or absorb medications properly due to gastrointestinal issues or if they need a rapid onset of action, IV therapy may be a more appropriate option.



Different type of Intravenous therapy for different purpose


Different type of intravenous therapy are meant for different purpose. In Mediskin, we offer four different types of intravenous therapy for different purposes:


  1. Anti-aging IV Therapy: This type of IV therapy typically involves a combination of antioxidants and nutrients, such as vitamin C, glutathione, and alpha-lipoic acid. These substances can help to neutralize free radicals in the body, reduce inflammation, and promote collagen production, all of which can help to reduce the visible signs of aging, such as wrinkles and fine lines.

  2. Immune Boost IV Therapy: This type of IV therapy typically involves a combination of vitamins, minerals, and amino acids, such as vitamin C, zinc, and glutathione. These substances can help to support the immune system by providing essential nutrients and antioxidants that can help to fight off infections and inflammation.

  3. Detox IV Therapy: This type of IV therapy typically involves hydrogen or a combination of nutrients and amino acids, such as glutathione. These substances can help to support the body's natural detoxification processes by promoting the elimination of toxins and free radicals from the body. This type of IV therapy may be particularly helpful for individuals who have been exposed to environmental toxins, such as heavy metals or pollutants.

  4. Beauty drip" or "glow drip" and typically involves a combination of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that are believed to promote healthy skin, hair, and nails. Here are some common ingredients found in beauty drip IV therapy:

    1. Vitamin C: Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant that can help to protect the skin from free radical damage, promote collagen production, and reduce hyperpigmentation and dark spots.

    2. B Vitamins: B vitamins, such as biotin, niacin, and pantothenic acid, are essential for healthy skin, hair, and nails. Biotin, in particular, is often included in beauty drip IV therapy to promote strong, healthy hair and nails.

    3. Glutathione: Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant that can help to lighten and brighten the skin by inhibiting the production of melanin, the pigment that gives skin its color.

    4. Zinc: Zinc is an essential mineral that can help to regulate oil production in the skin and promote wound healing.

    5. Hyaluronic Acid: Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance found in the skin that can help to hydrate and plump the skin, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
