FAQ

I would like to receive the high-dose vitamin C drip. Is any preparation needed?

A blood test is required at the first visit. This is to check for people with a constitution that can rarely cause hemolysis (G6PD deficiency), and to check **kidney function (creatinine, BUN)**. If you have test results from another clinic (only those with a verifiable date), blood collection at our clinic may be waived, but few clinics test kidney function, so it is often done at our clinic. People with heart failure, kidney stones, or severe kidney dysfunction cannot be treated.

Are there people who cannot receive Shiratama Drip (glutathione drip)?

People with active asthma or severe allergic disease cannot receive treatment. If there is a history of asthma, we judge suitability carefully. However, if you were only told you had asthma in childhood (long ago) and are not currently using an inhaler, treatment is possible.
