What to Expect When Paying for Mistletoe Injections in India
Mistletoe therapy, derived from the Viscum album plant, has been widely used in Europe as a complementary treatment in cancer care. With the growing demand for integrative oncology in India, ABNOBA India, the regional partner of Germany-based ABNOBA GmbH, now offers mistletoe injections under medical supervision.
But what does this therapy cost?
The price of mistletoe injections can vary depending on several key factors. These include the type of ABNOBA product prescribed, the dosage strength, and the patient’s treatment protocol. ABNOBA produces a range of standardized mistletoe extracts, each tailored to different tumor types and treatment stages, from early cancer support to advanced cases.
In India, a single ampoule of mistletoe injection typically costs between ₹1,500 to ₹3,500, depending on the series and concentration. However, this is only part of the picture. A full course may involve two to three injections per week, potentially resulting in a monthly cost of ₹12,000 to ₹30,000 or more.
Additional costs may include consultation with integrative oncologists, administration charges, and routine monitoring, especially in hospital settings. Some insurance providers may partially cover it under supportive care, but coverage is not guaranteed.
While mistletoe is not a cure, many cancer patients use it to enhance well-being, reduce chemotherapy side effects, and support immune response.
Patients are advised to seek treatment through authorized medical professionals to ensure quality and safety.
