Performance and wellness care in St. Augustine, FL

You have tried the drip bars and felt nothing change by Friday. High-dose IV therapy uses clinically effective doses, screened and supervised by medical professionals, so the results are measurable instead of marketing.
Most IV menus around St. Augustine top out at hydration with a vitamin sprinkle. You pay for the bag, feel a mild lift, and wonder why nothing lasts. The dosing is the difference. A typical drip bar uses minimum doses to protect margins. High-dose IV therapy at InnerWorks: Performance & Wellness works from the opposite direction: clinically effective doses of vitamin C, glutathione, alpha lipoic acid, amino acids, and L-Carnitine, selected after a medical intake and, where needed, lab screening. This page covers our six high-dose protocols, who they help, and the safety rails behind each one. They sit at the top of the signature IV therapy drips we formulate in St. Augustine, reserved for patients who want deep detoxification, immune support, recovery, or longevity work rather than basic rehydration. Every protocol is administered by trained medical professionals who monitor your response from the first minute to the last.
Ready to feel the difference real dosing makes? Schedule your high-dose IV evaluation today.
High-dose IV therapy delivers therapeutic doses of nutrients, such as 12 to 25+ grams of vitamin C or up to 2,000mg of glutathione, directly into the bloodstream under medical supervision. Unlike standard drip-bar infusions built on minimum dosing, it targets cellular repair, detoxification, and inflammation at concentrations oral supplements cannot reach.
The protocol determines the outcome. Our most advanced formulation, the Apex Drip, combines 25,000mg of vitamin C, 900mg of alpha lipoic acid, and 2,000mg of glutathione in a single session built for deep detoxification, inflammation reduction, and cellular repair. Amino acid infusions run 20 to 30 grams for muscle repair and endurance. Compare that with the single-gram vitamin C add-ons sold elsewhere and the gap is obvious. Higher doses demand higher standards. That is why high-dose vitamin C requires G6PD testing before infusion at upper doses, why every patient completes a medical intake, and why infusion rates are adjusted in real time. Sessions for vitamin C and Apex protocols typically run 60 to 120 minutes. Curious which protocol fits your goals? A brief consultation maps your labs and history to the right formulation.
High-dose protocols are matched to a goal, not pulled off a shelf. These are the concerns our St. Augustine patients bring to high-dose infusions most often, and the formulations we reach for first.
Schedule a ConsultationOxidative stress accumulates faster than the body's antioxidant systems can clear it, and the damage shows up as slower recovery, dull energy, and visible aging. Glutathione, the body's master antioxidant, and the full Apex Drip protocol support cellular repair and detox pathways at doses that move the needle. Many longevity-focused patients schedule monthly maintenance infusions after their initial series.
Aging and Cellular Decline IconMental fatigue under a high-demand schedule often traces back to oxidative load and depleted cofactors. Alpha lipoic acid supports metabolic and cellular health in neural tissue, and high-dose protocols pair it with targeted nutrients for clearer, steadier output. Patients with persistent cognitive complaints are screened first so the right protocol, not a guess, gets infused.
Brain Fog and Poor Focus IconOxidative stress and inflammation drive fatigue, slow recovery, and long-term health issues. The Apex Drip was designed for exactly this terrain, combining three high-dose antioxidants in one session to reduce inflammatory load at the cellular level.
Chronic Inflammation IconJoints that ache after every workout need raw material, not masking. High-dose amino acid infusions at 20 to 30 grams supply muscle and connective tissue repair substrate while reducing the soreness window between sessions.
Joint Pain and Slow Recovery IconDuring illness, travel seasons, or high stress, high-dose vitamin C at 12 to 25+ grams supports immune cell function and recovery in ways oral dosing cannot match.
Immune Depletion IconPlenty of clinics will sell you an IV. The advantages below are the reasons patients drive past the franchise drip bars on US-1 to get their high-dose work done here.
Our Apex Drip alone carries 25,000mg of vitamin C, roughly the contents of two dozen typical drip-bar add-ons, in a single screened infusion. Dosing at this level is the entire point of high-dose therapy: published clinical work on intravenous nutrients uses gram-level doses, and formulations below that threshold simply cannot produce the same cellular effect.
High-dose vitamin C without G6PD screening is a shortcut we refuse to take. Every high-dose patient completes a medical intake, lab-based screening when indicated, and continuous monitoring during treatment. The protocol that is right for your neighbor may be wrong for you, and screening is how we know.
High-dose infusions cost more than a hydration bag because they contain more, by an order of magnitude. You are paying for gram-level nutrients, screening, and monitored administration. Package pricing and memberships bring per-session cost down for patients on recurring protocols.
High-dose IVs are routinely combined with red light therapy, contrast therapy, and peptide protocols. Your provider sequences the stack so each modality supports, rather than crowds, the next.
12 to 25+ grams per infusion for immune support, oxidative stress reduction, and recovery during illness or high stress. G6PD testing required at higher doses.
Up to 2,000mg of the master antioxidant for detoxification, liver support, and skin clarity.
20 to 30 grams for muscle repair, endurance, and faster recovery between training blocks.
Supports liver function, toxin clearance, and metabolic and cellular health.
Supports fat metabolism and sustained energy production, often paired with training and weight-management protocols.
Our most advanced protocol: 25,000mg vitamin C, 900mg ALA, and 2,000mg glutathione in one session for deep detoxification, inflammation reduction, and cellular repair.
InnerWorks is not a franchise IV bar. We are a performance and wellness clinic supervised by medical professionals, and high-dose therapy is where that difference is most visible: lab-guided treatment strategies, weight-and-history-based protocol selection, and infusion rates adjusted in real time. Our team educates as it treats, so you leave knowing what was in the bag and why it was chosen. High-dose work is one tier of the broader IV therapy menu we formulate in St. Augustine, and your provider will tell you plainly if a standard drip serves your goal better. The logical next step is a screening consultation. Book it today.

Located at 2225 A1A South, Suite B4 in St. Augustine, minutes from Anastasia State Park on A1A South, our clinic is an easy stop after the beach or the gym. Florida heat and an outdoor training culture drain fluids and nutrients fast, which is exactly the depletion pattern high-dose protocols are built to correct.

It depends on the outcome you want. Immune support and illness recovery point to high-dose vitamin C, detox and liver support to glutathione with ALA, a full-body reset to the Apex Drip, and muscle recovery to high-dose amino acids. We guide you through a clinically structured selection process rather than guesswork.
High-dose vitamin C requires G6PD testing before the larger doses, and advanced combination drips get lab-based screening to confirm kidney and electrolyte safety. Standard hydration and energy IVs typically do not, so screening is matched to the specific protocol you choose.
Vitamin C and Apex infusions usually run 60 to 120 minutes. Your provider adjusts the infusion rate in real time for comfort and tolerance, so plan for the longer end on a first visit.
Performance and optimization patients typically come 1 to 2 times per week, recovery phases run weekly, and maintenance is monthly. Your plan is customized to your goals and screening results.
When administered with proper screening, yes. Safety at InnerWorks includes a medical intake, lab screening when needed, controlled dosing, and continuous monitoring. Most side effects are mild and temporary, such as nausea, lightheadedness, a warm sensation, or brief fatigue.
You are paying for gram-level nutrient doses, medical screening, and monitored administration rather than fluids with a vitamin sprinkle. Memberships and package pricing reduce the per-session cost for patients on recurring protocols.
