Why You Feel This Terrible (And Why OTC Meds Aren’t Enough)
When your body fights a cold or flu, several things happen simultaneously that OTC medications can’t fully address:
Your immune system is burning through nutrients at 2–3x the normal rate
White blood cells need vitamin C, zinc, and glutathione to identify and destroy pathogens. During an active infection, your body consumes these nutrients far faster than your diet or oral supplements can replace them — especially when you’re nauseous and not eating.
Fever and inflammation are dehydrating you
A fever increases your metabolic rate and fluid loss through sweating. Inflammation causes fluid to shift from your bloodstream into tissues. OTC cold medicine may reduce your fever temporarily, but it doesn’t replace the fluids you’ve lost. Dehydration makes every symptom — headache, fatigue, body aches, congestion — feel worse.
Your gut can’t absorb what you’re swallowing
When you’re sick, nausea, inflammation, and reduced appetite all decrease your gut’s ability to absorb nutrients from food and oral supplements. You might take a zinc tablet and absorb 30% of it on a healthy day. When you’re vomiting? Close to zero.
This is exactly why IVs are used in hospitals for sick patients
An IV bypasses your compromised digestive system entirely. 100% of the fluids, vitamins, and medications go directly into your bloodstream where your immune cells can access them immediately.
What’s Fighting For You
| Ingredient | How It Helps When You’re Sick | Why IV Matters More When Ill |
|---|---|---|
| Vitamin C | Concentrates in white blood cells during infection. Supports neutrophil function (your first-responder immune cells), enhances antibody production, and acts as an antioxidant to protect your own cells from the oxidative damage of immune activation. | Illness increases your body’s vitamin C demand by 200–300%. Oral absorption is already limited and drops further when your gut is inflamed. IV delivers therapeutic doses directly. |
| Zinc | Directly inhibits viral replication inside your cells. Stabilizes immune cell membranes. Supports the development of natural killer cells that destroy virus-infected cells. | Oral zinc causes nausea — the last thing you need when already sick. IV zinc bypasses your stomach entirely. |
| Glutathione | Your body’s master antioxidant. Neutralizes the reactive oxygen species generated by inflammation and immune activity. Supports liver function for clearing the metabolic waste produced during infection. | Glutathione is destroyed by stomach acid. Only IV delivers it intact at therapeutic concentrations. |
| B-Complex + B12 | Fuels rapid lymphocyte proliferation (your immune cells multiplying to fight the infection). Supports energy production when your body is diverting massive resources to immune defense. Combats the deep exhaustion that accompanies illness. | B vitamins deplete rapidly during illness. Oral absorption drops when you’re not eating normally. IV restores them immediately. |
| Magnesium | Helps reduce the body aches, muscle soreness, and headaches that accompany infection. Supports immune cell signaling. Promotes the deep sleep your body needs to recover. | Oral magnesium causes diarrhea — dangerous when illness is already causing fluid loss. IV avoids GI side effects. |
| IV Fluids (1L) | Replaces fluid lost to fever, sweating, vomiting, and reduced intake. Improves blood volume and circulation, helping your kidneys clear infection byproducts. |
Add Medications for Your Worst Symptoms
The Cold & Flu IV treats the cause — nutrient depletion and dehydration. These add-ons target your specific symptoms:
| Medication | What It Targets | How It Helps |
|---|---|---|
| Zofran (anti-nausea) | Nausea, vomiting, stomach upset | Blocks serotonin receptors within 15 minutes. Same med used post-surgery. Critical when you can’t keep food or fluids down. |
| Toradol (anti-inflammatory) | Body aches, headache, sinus pressure, fever-related pain | Prescription-strength. More effective than OTC ibuprofen. IV delivers it faster than oral tablets. |
| Pepcid (acid reducer) | Heartburn, stomach burning, acid reflux during illness | Common when coughing or lying flat for extended periods irritates the esophagus. |
| Steroid (Dexamethasone) | Severe inflammation, sinus swelling, airway inflammation | Powerful anti-inflammatory. NP-approved only when clinically appropriate. |
All prescription medications require real-time Nurse Practitioner approval. Tell us your symptoms when you book and our NP will determine which medications are appropriate for your situation.
When to Book (Timing Matters)
Day 1–2 (onset):
The best window. Your immune system is ramping up its response and burning through nutrients fastest. An early IV gives your body a full arsenal before depletion sets in. Patients who get treated early consistently report shorter, milder illness.
Day 3–4 (peak symptoms)
Still highly effective. This is when most people book — symptoms are at their worst and OTC meds aren’t cutting it. The IV won’t undo the virus, but it replenishes what your body has burned through, rehydrates you, and can significantly improve how you feel for the back half of your illness.
Day 5+ (lingering)
If you’re past the worst but still dragging — fatigue, brain fog, residual congestion — an IV can accelerate the tail end of recovery by restoring depleted nutrient reserves and hydration.
Honestly?
Earlier is better. But any point during illness is better than white-knuckling through it with nothing but DayQuil.
How It Works
Step 1
Book online or call/text (833) 688-1299
Same-day appointments. 7 days a week. You don’t have to leave your bed to book.
Step 2
NP reviews your symptoms and approves treatment.
Real-time review. If you need medications (Zofran, Toradol, steroid), this is where they’re authorized based on your specific symptoms.
Step 3
Nurse arrives. You stay in bed
Licensed RN or paramedic comes to your home with everything needed. 30–45 minutes. No driving. No waiting rooms. No exposure to other sick people.
Why Pure IV When You’re Sick?
We come to you
The last thing a sick person needs is to drive somewhere and sit in a waiting room. We bring the treatment to your bed, couch, or hotel room.
Real NP oversight means real medications
Other companies can’t offer Zofran, Toradol, or steroids because they don’t have proper medical oversight. Our Nurse Practitioner reviews every treatment in real time, so you get the prescription medications that actually move the needle on your symptoms.
Physician-owned practice
Not a franchise. Not a side hustle. A medical practice with physician ownership and the protocols to match.
Your kids can get treated too
We offer a Kids Myers Cocktail ($180) for ages 2–17 with pediatric dosing. When the whole family is sick, we can treat everyone in one visit.
Same-day, 7 days a week
Viruses don’t take weekends off. Neither do we.

FAQ's
Frequently Asked Questions
Will this cure my cold or flu?
No. A cold or flu is caused by a virus, and your immune system has to fight it off on its own. What the Cold & Flu IV does is give your immune system the nutrients and hydration it needs to fight more effectively, while the optional medications target your worst symptoms (nausea, pain, inflammation) so you feel better during the process. Patients consistently report shorter illness duration and significantly reduced symptom severity.
What’s the difference between the Cold & Flu IV and the Immune Boost IV?
The base formula is identical — same ingredients, same price. The difference is positioning and add-on strategy. The Cold & Flu IV is designed for people who are actively sick and may want symptom-relief medications added (Zofran, Toradol, steroids). The Immune Boost IV is positioned for prevention and early-stage immune support. If you’re currently symptomatic, book the Cold & Flu IV and add the medications you need.
Can my whole family get treated?
Yes. We offer a Kids Myers Cocktail ($180) for children ages 2–17 with pediatric dosing. Adults can book the Cold & Flu IV or any other package. We can treat multiple family members during the same visit at the same location. Pure IV is one of the few mobile IV companies that offers pediatric IVs.
Should I get this even if I’m already taking Tamiflu or antibiotics?
In most cases, yes — IV therapy complements prescription medications. Tamiflu targets the virus; the IV supports the immune system and addresses the dehydration that makes symptoms feel worse. Our Nurse Practitioner reviews all current medications before approving your treatment to ensure there are no interactions.
How fast will I feel better?
Most patients feel improvement within 30–60 minutes, particularly with hydration and anti-nausea medication. The immune-support vitamins build their effect over the following 12–48 hours. If you’re running a fever, the combination of IV hydration and anti-inflammatory medication typically provides noticeable relief during the treatment.
Is it safe when I’m sick with a fever?
Yes. IV hydration is standard medical treatment for patients with fever and dehydration. The fluids help regulate body temperature and support your body’s ability to manage the fever. Your nurse monitors your vitals throughout the treatment.
Do you accept insurance?
IV therapy is not covered by insurance. We accept HSA/FSA cards, cash, and all major credit cards. No hidden fees.
