★★★★★ Trusted by 25,000+ satisfied patients

  • What is IV therapy and how does it work?

    IV therapy is a service that delivers fluids, vitamins, and nutrients directly into your bloodstream via an intravenous line. This process allows for rapid absorption and supports hydration and wellness, under physician oversight. 

  • What types of IV therapy do you offer?

    Pure IV offers a menu of IV drips, including hydration, immunity support, energy, beauty, and recovery blends. Each option is developed by medical professionals and can be tailored with add-ons. 

  • Who is a good candidate for IV therapy?

    Adults seeking hydration, immune support, athletic recovery, or relief from fatigue or illness may benefit from IV therapy. Every patient receives a Good Faith Exam with a nurse practitioner to ensure safety and eligibility. 

  • What are the most popular IV therapy ingredients and what do they do?

    Ingredients include vitamin C, B vitamins, magnesium, glutathione, and electrolytes. These components are selected for their roles in supporting hydration and overall wellness. 

  • Is IV therapy safe?

    Pure IV is physician-owned and strictly follows compliance protocols. All treatments are approved by a nurse practitioner after a Good Faith Exam and administered by licensed nurses or paramedics (Arizona and Colorado only). 

  • Who administers IV therapy at Pure IV?

    In Arizona and Colorado, licensed paramedics deliver IV therapy. In all other states, licensed registered nurses provide care. Every session is supervised by a physician and pre-approved by a nurse practitioner. 

  • What are the potential side effects or risks of IV therapy?

    Potential side effects may include minor bruising or redness at the injection site. Serious reactions are rare due to thorough screening and professional oversight. 

  • How long does an IV therapy session take?

    Most sessions last 30–60 minutes. Your provider will monitor you throughout to ensure comfort and safety. 

  • How often can I get IV therapy?

    Frequency depends on your health goals and medical history. Many clients opt for weekly or monthly sessions, always with approval from our nurse practitioner. 

  • What should I expect during my IV therapy appointment?

    Expect a medical review, a Good Faith Exam, and a comfortable treatment administered by a licensed nurse or paramedic (in AZ & CO). Your safety and comfort are our top priorities.

  • How soon will I feel the effects of IV therapy?

    Some people report feeling refreshed or more hydrated shortly after treatment. Experiences vary based on individual factors and the specific IV blend. 

  • How long do the benefits of IV therapy last?

    Reported benefits may last several days to a week, depending on personal factors such as hydration status and metabolism. 

  • Can IV therapy help with dehydration, hangovers, or illness recovery?

    IV therapy is used by many for rapid rehydration and to support recovery from various common conditions. Individual experiences may vary. 

  • Is IV therapy effective for boosting immunity or energy?

    IV therapy delivers nutrients directly into the bloodstream, and some clients report feeling more energized or resilient. However, results are individual and not guaranteed.

    Many athletes use IV therapy as part of their recovery routines. Reported outcomes include feeling refreshed or rehydrated. 

  • Is IV therapy covered by insurance or HSA/FSA?

    Pure IV accepts HSA and FSA payments for all IV treatments. Most IV therapy is not covered by standard insurance plans, so we recommend checking your benefits for details. 

  • How do I prepare for an IV therapy session?

    Eat a light meal, hydrate, and bring any questions for your provider. Wear comfortable clothing for your session. 

  • Are there any reasons I shouldn’t get IV therapy (contraindications)?

    Some medical conditions, like kidney disease or heart failure, may require special precautions. Our team reviews your health history and performs a Good Faith Exam before every treatment. 

  • What is the difference between IV therapy and oral supplements?

    IV therapy bypasses the digestive system, delivering nutrients directly to your bloodstream. This allows for absorption without the digestive process.

  • Can I receive IV therapy at home or do I need to visit a clinic?

    Pure IV specializes in mobile IV therapy, bringing services directly to your home, office, or hotel for convenience and privacy.

  • What is a Good Faith Exam and why is it required before IV therapy?

    A Good Faith Exam is a required medical evaluation by a nurse practitioner to ensure IV therapy is safe and appropriate for you. No treatment is administered without this approval. 

  • How are your IV therapy formulas developed and tested?

    Our formulas are created and reviewed by physicians and nurse practitioners, based on current best practices and patient safety standards.
