Alpha Lipoic Drip

The universal antioxidant — working where others cannot

Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA) is unique among antioxidants — it is both water and fat soluble, meaning it can neutralize free radicals in virtually every tissue in the body, including the brain. It also regenerates other antioxidants including Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and glutathione, amplifying the body's entire antioxidant network.

At the cellular level, ALA plays a critical role in mitochondrial energy production — the process by which your cells convert nutrients into usable energy. When ALA levels are adequate, cells produce energy more efficiently, recover from stress more quickly, and age more slowly.

Intravenous ALA achieves concentrations in the blood that are far higher than what oral supplementation can provide, making it particularly effective for therapeutic applications including neuropathy support, metabolic health, and anti-aging protocols.

Common questions

What conditions is Alpha Lipoic Acid IV used for?

ALA IV therapy is used clinically for peripheral neuropathy, diabetic neuropathy, liver disease, heavy metal detoxification, anti-aging protocols, and as part of integrative cancer support. Our team will help determine if it is appropriate for your specific situation.

How long does an Alpha Lipoic Drip session take?

ALA infusions are typically administered slowly over 60–90 minutes to minimize the risk of side effects. Plan for approximately 2 hours for your first visit.

Are there any side effects?

When infused slowly, ALA is well-tolerated by most people. Some individuals may experience a brief sensation of warmth or tingling. Rapid infusion can cause nausea, which is why we administer it at a controlled rate.

How many sessions are recommended?

For therapeutic goals such as neuropathy support, a series of 10 or more sessions is often recommended. For anti-aging and general wellness, monthly maintenance sessions are common.

Can I combine ALA with other IV therapies?

Yes. ALA pairs well with Glutathione and High Dose Vitamin C for a comprehensive antioxidant protocol. Our clinical team will help you design the right combination.
