About the drip
Vitamin C is recommended for the prevention and treatment of scurvy (characterized by swollen bleeding gums and the opening of previously healed wounds). Its administration is desirable for patients with an acute deficiency or for those whose absorption of orally ingested ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) is uncertain. High dose intravenous ascorbic acid has been used as therapy for infectious disease from bacterial and viral origin and adjuvant therapy for cancer.
