About this Drip
Lysine is biologically critical for three main functions: the synthesis of collagen (skin/healing), the absorption of calcium (bone health), and the regulation of the immune system against certain viruses. It is the ideal choice for:
Athletes/Post-Surgery: To speed up the repair of connective tissues like tendons and skin.
Bone Health: For those looking to improve calcium retention and bone density.
Key Benefits
For Structure & Bones
Collagen Production: Lysine is required for the formation of collagen fibrils. Without it, your body cannot repair skin, cartilage, or tendon damage effectively.
Calcium Absorption: Unlike most nutrients, Lysine actually increases the gut's absorption of calcium and reduces the amount lost in urine, making it vital for strong bones.
Anxiety: Clinical studies suggest L-Lysine may block certain stress receptors (5-HT4) in the gut and brain, potentially reducing cortisol-induced anxiety.
How it works (The Science)
By delivering 2,000mg of L-Lysine intravenously, it bypasses the digestive competition, ensuring high concentrations are available immediately to block viral replication and fuel collagen repair.
Complimentary Celluma® LED Light Therapy
All IV drip appointments at Epicare Health include complimentary professional-grade Celluma® LED Light Therapy during your infusion session. This relaxing, non-invasive treatment uses advanced LED wavelengths to support skin rejuvenation, recovery, relaxation, and overall wellness while you receive your drip.
Simply sit back, relax, and enjoy your treatment while your Celluma® LED therapy runs alongside your infusion.
The Experience: What to expect
At Epicare, we blend medical expertise with a relaxing environment to ensure your treatment is as comfortable as it is effective.
Consultation: Your appointment begins with a brief health check with our clinician to review your medical history and ensure the formulation is perfectly suited to your needs.
Relaxation: You will be seated comfortably in our clinic. Our experienced clinician will cleanse the area and gently insert a sterile micro-needle.
The Infusion: Depending on your specific formulation, the drip will be administered over 30 to 60 minutes (longer for specialist drips). During this time, you are free to read, work on your phone, or simply close your eyes and relax.
Celluma® LED Light Therapy: Every IV drip at Epicare Health includes complimentary medical-grade LED Light Therapy during your treatment session to promote relaxation, recovery, skin health, and overall wellness while you unwind.
Aftercare: Once finished, the cannula is removed, and a sterile dressing is applied. Most patients can resume normal activities immediately. We advise staying well-hydrated for the rest of the day to help your body circulate the nutrients.
Pre-Treatment Blood Tests: We recommend that patients complete the following blood tests before treatment: Full Blood Count, ESR, Liver Function, Kidney Function, and G6PD enzyme. Our Epicare Basic Screen offers the best-value way to complete most of these. The ESR and G6PD enzyme tests can be added separately if required.
