WHAT IS IV VITAMIN THERAPY?
One IV vitamin therapy lasts 30 minutes to one hour. During that time, a trained professional inserts the needle and monitors the treatment. You can typically go about the rest of your day as usual afterward.
WHY IS IV USED FOR TREATMENTS?
Healthcare providers primarily use IV vitamin therapy to treat nutrient deficiencies in people with malabsorption problems or those who cannot take oral supplements. IV vitamin therapy helps alleviate nutrient deficiency symptoms like anemia, diarrhea, and weight loss.
Other possible uses for IV vitamin therapy include:
- Aids red blood cell production
- Alleviates hangovers
- Delivers nutrients that help protect against illnesses like colds, COVID, and the flu
- Keeps you hydrated
- Treats alcohol use disorder
IV THERAPY BENEFITS
IV vitamin therapy effectively treats nutrient deficiencies in people with malabsorption and those who cannot take oral supplements. Some evidence suggests that IV vitamin therapy might benefit people who can get their nutrients through diet or oral supplementation.
Some of the possible benefits of IV vitamin therapy may include treating:
- Brain fog
- Dehydration
- Dry skin
- Fatigue
- Frequent infections
- Headache
Keep in mind: There's not enough research to support whether IV vitamin therapy is effective or safe.5 IV vitamin therapy might be unsafe if a healthcare provider does not prescribe it. Always talk to a healthcare provider using IV vitamin therapy to manage or treat a health condition.
POSSIBLE SIDE AFFECTS / RISKS
IV vitamin therapy might be dangerous if a healthcare provider does not prescribe it to treat a specific health condition, said Harris-Pincus. Nutrients might become toxic if too much of them are in your bloodstream, so it's possible to overdose on minerals and vitamins.
Nutrient overdose symptoms might include an irregular heartbeat, cloudy urine, and seizures. Still, overdose is rare since your body typically excretes excess nutrients in your urine.
Other side effects and possible risks of IV vitamin therapy include:
- Air embolism, which happens if an air bubble enters the vein and goes into your heart or lungs
- Allergic reaction
- Blood clot
- Infection
- Injury to the skin and tissue
