Arbutin Drip — Plant-Derived Brightening IV
Bearberry-derived alpha-arbutin IV — clearly halal, plant-based brightening for pigment correction and even skin tone.

Arbutin Drip delivers alpha-arbutin extracted from bearberry plant (Arctostaphylos uva-ursi) directly into the bloodstream alongside vitamin C and supportive antioxidants. Alpha-arbutin is the gold-standard tyrosinase inhibitor for melanin overproduction — the active is plant-derived, the carrier is verified plant-derived glycerin + saline, and the manufacturer holds BPJPH (Indonesia) halal certification reference on file.
This is the cleanest halal IV-brightening option in the menu — particularly important for Muslim patients seeking pigment correction without the source-verification overhead of conditional drips.
Where it comes from, what's inside, who certifies it.
Vitamin C, glutathione, B-vitamins — synthetic / plant-derived ingredients. No porcine, no animal-derived. IV vehicle is sterile saline.
