Clinical profile

Introducing ozone into the body via the blood — a drip of ozonated saline or major autohaemotherapy. Reviews describe analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects; clinical data come from small low-quality studies, and results in COVID-19 are conflicting. Few studies specifically on ozonated saline drips are in PubMed.

Every statement links to a publication in the list below. This is a snapshot of published research, not a final assessment of the method: international practice and integrated protocols often run ahead of official publications. Draft based on published research; requires review by a physician. Revision: 2026-10-17.

Mechanism of action

  • Ozone-oxygen therapy is credited with analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and immunomodulatory effects. [1]

Where studies show an effect

  • Post-herpetic neuralgia: ozone autohaemotherapy combined with drugs is more effective than drugs alone. [2]
  • Diabetic foot syndrome: ozone therapy as part of treatment speeds healing and reduces the amputation rate. [5]

Open questions and study limitations

  • COVID-19: two meta-analyses contradict each other — from reduced mortality to improvement in laboratory parameters only. [3, 4]
  • In diabetic foot, the proportion of complete healing does not differ from standard treatment. [5]

Safety

  • Complications of ozone therapy, usually minor but potentially serious, are under-reported in studies. [6]
  • No adverse events were described in the chronic wounds review. [7]
Contraindications. Contraindications are determined by the physician according to the equipment or drug instructions; they are not given in study abstracts.

Basis of the price benchmark

Prices for this procedure appear in the price lists of 8 industry facilities; the median and interquartile range across facilities are shown (each facility counts once).

Evidence base

There are meta-analyses of small low-quality studies with conflicting conclusions; data specifically on intravenous drips are scarce.

Publications were found in PubMed; titles and journals are given verbatim, conclusions are a brief summary of the abstracts under the conditions of the specific studies. The level shows the volume of published data, not the value of the method: A — Plenty of data: consistent systematic reviews and meta-analyses of RCTs; B — Some data: reviews or several RCTs, results are heterogeneous; C — Little data: single RCTs or controlled studies; D — Scarce data: mainly reviews, observational and experimental studies. The passport is updated as new work is published and with regard to international practice.
