That isn't all it means, it means it needs to be administered via IV, it will not reach blood serum levels high enough if you take it orally, regardless of how much you take, you are just wasting it.

That isn’t inherent to the term (which also applies to cell culture studies) - pharmacologic ascorbate typically just means > 1 mM, which yes is only possible in human serum via IV
