What Is IV Therapy?
How intravenous administration works, why screening matters, and how it compares with oral supplements.
Read moreClear answers on what IV therapy is, whether it might suit you, what it involves, and its limits. When timing or outcomes vary, we say so rather than inventing a figure.

IV (intravenous) therapy delivers sterile fluids, and sometimes selected vitamins, minerals or other ingredients, directly into a vein through a small cannula. It is carried out by a trained clinical team in a licensed setting, after an assessment of whether it is appropriate for you.
A clinician reviews your health, medicines, allergies and reasons for enquiring, then decides whether an infusion is appropriate and, if so, which one. Nothing is chosen from a menu without that assessment, and the clinician may recommend a different option or none at all.
Not exactly. The intravenous route bypasses digestion, which is relevant in specific clinical situations. For many healthy people, though, a balanced diet or oral supplements can be appropriate and simpler. Which route suits you is a clinical decision, not a given.
No. It is not suitable for everyone, and suitability depends on an individual assessment. Some conditions, medicines, allergies, and pregnancy or breastfeeding, may mean it is not appropriate, or that extra screening is needed first.
Yes. Possible effects include discomfort, bruising or redness at the cannula site, lightheadedness, and effects related to specific ingredients. Allergic reactions are uncommon but possible, which is why treatment is given in a clinical setting with monitoring.
Share your full medical history, all medicines and supplements, any allergies or previous reactions, and whether you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Mention heart, kidney, liver or asthma conditions in particular, as these can affect suitability.
No. IV therapy is not a replacement for a healthy diet, for prescribed medical treatment, or for proper investigation of symptoms. It may play a supportive role in some situations, but it does not treat medical conditions on its own.
Timing varies by the treatment plan and individual needs, so we don't quote a fixed figure. Some infusions, such as NAD+, are given slowly and take longer. The team will give you a realistic idea of timing for your specific session.
No. Submitting the form is a request to start a conversation. It does not confirm treatment or eligibility. Any treatment depends on a professional consultation and an individual suitability assessment.
You will be given clear aftercare guidance, including how to care for the cannula site and what symptoms to watch for. If anything concerns you afterwards, you can contact the clinic, or seek urgent care if symptoms are serious.
Seek urgent care for difficulty breathing, chest pain, a spreading rash, significant swelling, or feeling seriously unwell. This website and the booking form are not emergency services; in an emergency, contact local emergency services immediately.
If a question here raised another one, these longer explainers cover the same ground in more detail.
