Which IV Drip Is Best for Colds and Immunity (and Why)

30 Sept

When the seasons shift, so does our immune system.
Between shorter days, office heating, and endless sniffles doing the rounds, it’s no wonder many of us start to feel drained and run-down by October.

That’s where IV nutrient therapy can make a difference — giving your body the vitamins, minerals, and hydration it needs before you hit burnout.
And with Dripdash back in clinic on 11th and 25th October, now’s the perfect time to find out which drip is right for you.

Why IV Therapy Works So Fast

Unlike tablets or powders, IV nutrients go directly into your bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system — meaning faster, higher absorption.

When your body is under stress (from illness, training, travel, or lack of sleep), your cells need more fuel to repair and defend. But if your gut is inflamed or sluggish, oral supplements often don’t get fully absorbed.

IV therapy solves this by delivering a 100% bioavailable hit of vitamins, antioxidants, and hydration straight to your cells — restoring balance and helping your immune system do what it does best: protect you.

The Science of Immune Support

Here’s what’s inside the most popular Dripdash immunity drips, and why each ingredient matters:

Vitamin C Mega Boost – £150

The classic cold-fighter.
Vitamin C plays a vital role in collagen formation, wound healing, and the activation of white blood cells — your body’s defence army.
At high doses, it also acts as a powerful antioxidant, neutralising free radicals that build up during stress and infection.

Science snapshot:
A 2017 review in Nutrients found that regular vitamin C supplementation reduces the duration and severity of colds, particularly in those under physical stress (like athletes).
Delivered intravenously, you absorb more — and faster — than from oral supplements.

Immune Boost Drip – £175

This one’s all-round protection.
It blends vitamin C, zinc, selenium, and B vitamins, alongside hydrating electrolytes.

Zinc supports the production of infection-fighting T-cells, while selenium helps regulate inflammation and antioxidant defences.
The B vitamins (especially B6 and B12) keep your nervous and immune systems in sync, supporting mood and energy alongside immunity.

Think of this as your body’s multi-layer shield — fortifying your defences, improving recovery, and reducing post-viral fatigue.

Recovery Drip – £180

When you’re already run-down, dehydrated or post-illness, the Recovery Drip helps bring you back online.
It combines electrolytes with amino acids and key nutrients to restore energy and rehydrate at a cellular level.

Perfect after flu, jet lag, or intense training — and a great follow-up after an Immune Boost.

Can You Afford Not to Be Well This Winter?

Your immune system doesn’t just protect you from colds — it affects your energy, focus, sleep, and resilience.
When it’s under pressure, every part of life feels harder.

IV therapy isn’t about chasing perfection or “quick fixes.”
It’s about giving your body the raw materials it needs to perform — especially during times of stress or seasonal change.

The reality is simple: prevention is far easier (and cheaper) than recovery.
