Get Ascorbic Acid Online

Prescription Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) is used to treat Vitamin C deficiency, including scurvy, and conditions requiring therapeutic doses beyond what over-the-counter supplements provide. It is also used in patients with malabsorption, severe dietary deficiency, or elevated physiological need.

Common symptoms include fatigue, weakness, irritability, joint and muscle pain, easy bruising, swollen or bleeding gums, slow wound healing, dry skin, and small red or purple spots on the skin called petechiae. Severe, prolonged deficiency leads to scurvy.

Most patients begin to notice improvement in symptoms such as fatigue and gum tenderness within one to two weeks of starting therapeutic doses. Full recovery from scurvy typically occurs within four to eight weeks with consistent treatment.

For treating scurvy and significant deficiency, typical adult doses range from 500 mg to 1000 mg daily in divided doses, though your physician will determine the appropriate dose based on the severity of your deficiency and your individual health needs.

Ascorbic Acid is generally well tolerated. High doses may cause gastrointestinal upset, nausea, diarrhea, or stomach cramps. Very high doses over long periods can increase the risk of kidney stones in susceptible individuals. Your physician will monitor your response and adjust dosing as needed.

People at higher risk include those with poor dietary intake, smokers, individuals with malabsorption conditions such as Crohn's disease or celiac disease, people who are pregnant or breastfeeding, older adults, and those with limited food variety or food insecurity.
