In general, IV curcumin therapy provides a direct and faster effect compared to curcumin taken as a dietary supplement. Through an IV drip, it can easily bypass the digestive system and be directly absorbed into the bloodstream. With oral administration, it takes longer to take effect as it is poorly absorbed and metabolized in the liver and intestine. Although the exact time frame of IV administration can vary from patient to patient it still is still a beneficial treatment.
