Frequently Asked Questions

Why Choose IV Over Oral Vitamins?

Oral supplements, though beneficial, often face absorption challenges. Factors like digestive cofactors, gut bacteria balance, and liver processing can limit their effectiveness. Additionally, certain medications and conditions like chronic malabsorption syndromes can further hinder nutrient uptake from oral supplements. IV vitamin therapy directly delivers nutrients to your cells, bypassing these obstacles.

 Is IV Vitamin Therapy Safe?

Absolutely. Our IV Therapies and Booster Shots are meticulously developed by board-certified emergency physicians and pharmacists, leveraging years of clinical experience. We pride ourselves on our excellent safety profile. However, it's important to remember that all medical therapies have inherent risks. We ensure patients are fully informed about the risks, benefits, and alternatives, and all treatments are administered by certified medical personnel.

What are the benefits of IV Vitamin Therapy

IV vitamin therapy is effective for various conditions, from common colds to chronic fatigue, and even as a part of regular health maintenance. It offers a direct, high-dose nutrient infusion to the cells, beneficial for those with absorption issues or nutrient deficiencies.

How Long Does an IV Nutrient Drip Take?

On average, administering an IV nutrient drip takes about 30-60 minutes. This is preceded by a brief 15-minute consultation to review your medical history and ensure the treatment is tailored to your needs.

Is IV Nutrient Therapy Necessary for Me?

IV Nutrient Therapy ensures 100% absorption of vitamins and nutrients, bypassing the gastrointestinal tract's absorption barrier. If you struggle with oral supplementation or have absorption issues, this therapy can be particularly beneficial, providing nutrients more efficiently and effectively.

How Often Should I Get IV Nutrient Therapy?

The frequency of your IV nutrient therapy depends on your individual health goals and needs. Following a consultation, our medical professionals will recommend a personalized wellness program, including treatment frequency and specific ingredients.
