About this Drip

Unlike other amino acids, Taurine is not used to build protein; instead, it is found freely in the brain, heart, and eyes. It acts as an osmolyte (regulating fluid balance in cells) and a neuromodulator that calms the nervous system. It is a suitable choice for:

High Stress/Anxiety: Individuals looking for a non-sedative natural relaxant.
Athletes: To prevent muscle cramping and regulate electrolyte balance.

Key Benefits

For Nervous System & Mood

The "Calming" Signal: Taurine binds to GABA receptors in the brain—the same receptors targeted by anti-anxiety medications. By activating these pathways, it helps "quiet" the nervous system, reducing racing thoughts and promoting relaxation without heavy sedation.
Neuroprotection: It acts as a potent antioxidant in the brain, protecting delicate neurons from oxidative stress.

How it works (The Science)

Taurine is "conditionally essential," meaning the body creates it, but stores are rapidly depleted by stress, intense exercise, or illness. The GABA Mechanism: When infused intravenously, Taurine crosses the blood-brain barrier. It helps increase the production of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), the brain's primary inhibitory neurotransmitter. This physically lowers the body's stress response (cortisol and adrenaline).

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.
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.
