IV Discharge Instructions
If you feel like you are having a life-threatening emergency, please call 911
How to care for yourself after your IV Vitamin Therapy Infusion:
*Apply pressure to site for 2 minutes after IV has been removed
*Keep band-aid in place for 1 hour
*Warm packs and elevating your arm can be used for any bruising at the site
*Any swelling should be significantly reduced in 24hrs
*Post IV infusion symptoms are uncommon. Dehydration is the cause of most symptoms and concerns.
*We encourage you to drink at least 1-2 16oz bottles of water after your IV infusion.
*If enough water is not consumed, you many experience any of the following symptoms: headaches, nausea, joint pain, blurred vision, cramping (GI and/or muscular), mental confusion or disorientation.
Most patients experience significant overall improvements such as:
*Better energy
*Better mental clarity
*Improved sleep
*Overall feelings of well being
Patients commonly report one of the two after IV Vitamin Therapy Infusion:
*Patients generally feel better right away. Due to a busy lifestyle, many people are chronically dehydrated and deficient in vitamins and minerals causing them not to feel well. Once the patient is hydrated and the nutrients are replaced, their symptoms improve quickly.
*Patients feel tired or unwell. These patients are generally in the process of detoxifying. When toxins are pulled out of tissues, they re-enter the blood stream but they are now on their way OUT instead of on their way IN. Even when patients do not feel well at this stage, the process is one of healing and cleansing.
How often will I need IV Vitamin Therapy Infusion:
The number of frequency of treatments will vary depending on certain factors:
*Condition(s) being treated
*Patient current health status
* Patient response as we go along.
