IV Therapy

IV therapy involves administering fluids, vitamins, minerals, or medications directly into a vein. Its use depends on medical indications and each patient's needs; not everyone needs vitamins or nutrients administered intravenously.

What specialist do I need for IV therapy?

IV therapy should be recommended and supervised by a physician who evaluates the patient's health, determines whether there is a medical need, and decides which substances, doses, and method of administration are appropriate.

When may IV therapy be needed?

Intravenous therapy may be used when there is a medical indication for administering fluids, medications, or certain nutrients through a vein, such as in some cases of dehydration or when oral administration is not appropriate.

Is IV therapy appropriate for everyone?

No. The need for intravenous therapy depends on each patient's medical condition. Unnecessary administration of fluids, vitamins, or medications intravenously may cause adverse effects, so it should be provided under medical evaluation and supervision.
