Hello, guys. My friend has recently been diagnosed scurvy. As far as I hear, she will be treated with vitamin c injections. I am interested in what the recommended dosage is for these injections. I would really be thankful for this piece of info. I will appreciate all your efforts in replying.
Hello, there. I am sorry to hear for your friend. Scurvy is a disease caused by vitamin C deficiency. It is probably that your friend suffers from acute form since she will be getting injections. It all depends on her condition. I think the usual dosage is 350 mg per kilogram per day. You haven't mentioned your friends age. It is the best to see that with his/her doctor. I hope everything will be all right. Good bye!
