Here is a small snippet of info for your viewing pleasure. There is tons of info out there. I won’t spin my wheels looking for studies because there are few. We know why too. Big Pharma doesn’t fund these studies because there is no money in it for them. They can’t patent a vitamin. This substantiates why there are few studies. This doesn’t mean that there aren’t great benefits for professional iv use.
Instead of attacking the great results and quality of life that my mother has been fortunate enough to receive, it would do you well to look outside the box for your ‘amazing’ claim to knowledge. There is info all over the place if you look.
I don’t wish to carry on with feeding your egocentric tantrum, as I am very busy taking care of my mom and have more important ways to spend my time.

Thank-you

I have read through all of the comments and just want to say please tone down your bristles and egos. Don’t get upset if people answer with their points of view. It is good to hear all sides then everyone decides for themselves. But continuing to flail each other distorts what this site is actually for… cool down

I'd like to remind members of the community guidelines, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/blog/about-connect/tab/community-guidelines/.

In particular:

Respect all members and Share your story, not medical advice:
-Share your own experiences. But do not tell others what they should do.
- Experience does not replace professional medical advice. It does not replace a diagnosis. It does not replace treatment. See the full Disclaimer.
- Do not ignore professional medical advice. Do not delay seeking medical advice.

When discussing supplements, it is always best to seek the guidance of your provider or a specialist. Some may be harmless to take, but some supplements and vitamins can interact with medications and cause unwanted side-effects or change how a medication works. Anecdotal experiences should not replace expert guidance.

Finally, treat others with respect, even when you disagree.

@JustinMcClanahan agreed, always speak to your Dr and be guided by that advice and treatment. Additionally, i believe it would be advantageous to seek the advice of a Naturopath for possible complimentary therapies that can further help with treatment.
