FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is Iron IV therapy and how does it work?
Drip Hydration uses Venofer iron that’s injected directly into the bloodstream during IV treatments. Administering this treatment intravenously allows the iron to bypass the digestive system. The body can absorb it faster and more efficiently than if you were to take oral supplements.
All IV treatments are administered in-home by licensed professionals who know how to do their work safely and accurately. We always make sure that our clients are comfortable and monitor each person carefully throughout each treatment.
What are the benefits of Iron IV therapy?
This therapy can boost your energy and increase your stamina by improving oxygen transport through the bloodstream so that you can better tolerate the physical demands of exercise. Iron can also enhance cognitive functioning and strengthen your immune system to help you fight off illnesses. You may also notice that your hair and nails grow stronger and healthier after you complete a series of treatments.
What can Iron IV therapy help with?
Iron IV therapy helps replenish iron levels, and correct iron-deficiency anemia better than oral supplements. Iron-deficiency anemia can cause a myriad of symptoms, including fatigue, difficulty in focus and concentration, dizziness, shortness of breath, and headaches. You may experience cold hands and feet, and you may experience coldness in conditions where you’d otherwise feel warm or even hot. Brittle nails, unusual cravings, tongue inflammation, heart palpitations, and restless legs syndrome are also common symptoms of iron-deficiency anemia. Our Iron IV therapy can manage these symptoms and make you feel healthier.
How many Iron IV sessions will I need?
Treatment plans can vary based on a person’s individual needs, and some clients require multiple sessions to restore their iron to normal levels. We’ll also review any lab results and recommendations from your health care provider to determine the exact recommended number of treatments. If you’re interested in this therapy, consult with Drip Hydration so that we can create a customized plan.
Does Iron IV therapy have side effects?
Possible side effects include temporary discomfort at the injection site and mild nausea and dizziness. You may also experience some bloating and minor skin irritation after treatment. Please note that these side effects are temporary and usually resolve themselves quickly. Our professionals also monitor each treatment closely to ensure that our clients remain as comfortable as possible.
How much does Iron IV therapy cost?
Pricing starts at $799 for at-home Venofer iron IV therapy. The exact cost will depend on the number of treatments and the dosages you receive with your customized plan. Please confirm our pricing when booking your appointment.
How often should I do Iron IV therapy?
Frequency depends on the severity of your iron deficiency and your treatment goals. Some clients require a series of infusions over a few weeks, while others can do well with occasional treatments to maintain sufficient iron levels. For the best results, follow medical guidance and lab tests.
Is Iron IV therapy safe in pregnancy?
If deemed necessary, iron can be prescribed during pregnancy to restore iron levels. However, it’s important to receive these treatments under a doctor’s supervision and have close monitoring throughout each session. If you're pregnant, consult Drip Hydration and your OB-GYN before you begin treatment.
How long does Iron IV therapy last?
How long results last varies depending on your base iron levels and what specific medical conditions you have. Even though your iron stores could remain improved after a few months of treatment, we recommend receiving occasional follow-up treatments and testing for the best results.
