konisaan Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 I have friend who is running out of options and wants to try high dose vitamin C. It's administered via IV at doses up to 100g. My friend has researched this. To get a nurse to come round and administer 50g costs nearly 3000 baht - too expensive over several months. He wants to buy the product and do it himself. He's tried some of the larger pharmacies in Chiang Mai without luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apetley Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 My wife recently had a course of injections. Got the medicine in a vial and took it to the local Govt Health Clinic where it was administered for free. May be an option if your friend can source the vitamin c.

h90 Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 pharmacies at hospitals? At least I would think so, as it isn't rocket science to mix it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick167 Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Although high Vitamin C doses via Iv can be helpful.....it should always be done by a qualified Doctor who has experienced with these kind of thereapy. There is dangers of kidney failure, going into shocks, cardiac arrests, severe side-effects, blood acidosis, etc. Please do not do it himself nor use a nurse. See a qualified doctor even if its expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickJ Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 (edited) This is pretty common in the US. perhaps Canada as well. Edited March 21, 2015 by NickJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moe666 Posted March 22, 2015 Share Posted March 22, 2015 This is pretty common in the US. perhaps Canada as well. Not really that common. My ex wife was licenses in New Mexico to preforn injections and high dose vit-c was one of them. She said that about 25grams was about the effective dose in cancer treatment. This is from research by the Vitamin C Reascerch Institute, yes they do have one. You also need to watch your diet while on this treatment cut out sugar as vit.c and sugar love the same receptor sites in the body. I live in Chiang Mai and we have a paramedic who buys injectable vitc at one of the local pharmacies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tolley Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 You might want to try liposomal. It is probably more effective that the injections. It is much cheaper and easier to take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitsune Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) Sure vitamin C is good against cancer, but what about all the other vitamins nutriments antioxidants and other vital elements cancer victims are deprived of? Not to mention oxygen therapy and quality air (in Chiang Mai ) Edited March 26, 2015 by Kitsune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maidee Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 3000 baht is not that expensive, if you get it done correctly ... might save your life as oral vitamin c is poorly absorbed and after 10 grams, you will get diariah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
konisaan Posted April 7, 2015 Author Share Posted April 7, 2015 3000 baht is not that expensive, if you get it done correctly ... might save your life as oral vitamin c is poorly absorbed and after 10 grams, you will get diariah It has to been done at least 3 times a week for months; It's not a one off. In any case he has managed to import some and with a little training is now self administering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
