What is IV therapy?

Intravenous (IV) therapy is a method of delivering fluids and essential nutrients directly into your bloodstream.

When you take vitamins, minerals, and other supplements orally, they must first go through the digestive processes, which break down the nutrients and limit how much of them your body can absorb.

Aventura OB-GYN Specialists offer IV therapy to replenish the fluids and nutrients your body needs to function optimally. The medical providers customize an IV therapy plan to your unique needs and supervise each in-office therapy session to ensure your safety.

When should I consider IV therapy?

You might be a candidate for IV therapy if you’re not feeling your best or are at risk of dehydration.

The Aventura OB-GYN Specialists team can also recommend IV therapy as part of your treatment plan for acute or chronic illnesses like:

• Colds and flu
• Asthma
• Allergies
• Hangover
• Chronic fatigue
• Lyme disease
• Migraines
• Fibromyalgia

IV therapy can also boost your overall immunity, ease muscle discomfort, boost your energy levels, and quickly rehydrate your body, so you can enjoy a higher quality of life.

The providers complete a physical exam and review any symptoms you have to determine if IV therapy is a good fit for you. They can also suggest how often you can schedule IV therapy appointments to maintain your overall health and wellness.

What happens during an IV therapy session?

During your initial IV therapy session at Aventura OB-GYN Specialists, the providers help you get comfortable before starting an intravenous line into your vein. They connect the IV to a bag of saline fluids that slowly drip into your bloodstream.

Your specialist can determine which nutrients you need based on your symptoms and general health. They can include vitamins and minerals like:

• B-complex vitamins
• Vitamin C
• Magnesium
• Calcium
• Amino acids
• Glutathione (antioxidant)
• NAD+

After your therapy session, the team removes the IV line. You may notice an improvement in your symptoms and a boost in your energy levels right away, but it can take a few hours for you to feel the full effect of IV therapy.

Many people enjoy the benefits of IV therapy for several days after their session.  Additional IV sessions are available to support your overall wellness and address new symptoms of acute and chronic health issues.
