Your requested cocktail will be mixed with a saline-based fluid to hydrate you as you are dosed with vitamins and minerals. There are numerous reasons why you might choose to receive this therapy ranging from a desire to strengthen your immune system, increase your energy levels, fortify your body after illness, or address a vitamin deficiency.

Standard Myers Cocktail

The Myers cocktail is suitable for most individuals and can be used to boost the immune system and as a part of a treatment plan for various medical conditions. Individuals with fibromyalgia, chronic migraines, sinus inflammation, hormone imbalances, and hyperthyroidism may benefit from adding a Myers cocktail to their treatment plan. The Myers cocktail only takes around 30 minutes to administer, making it easy to fit into your schedule.

If you have existing medical conditions and wish to add IV therapy to your healing plan, talk to your care provider to ensure you choose a therapy that will work well alongside your current treatment plan. Myers is also a wise selection for individuals seeking a cocktail to help eliminate fatigue, reduce muscle spasms, and ease seasonal allergies. Fundamentals Med Spa’s Myers cocktail contains the following vitamins and minerals:

Immune Support IV Plus Glutathione

Keep your immune system healthy all year long with an immune support IV plus glutathione. Not only will this blend help you establish a robust immune system, but it can also help you recover by giving your body the elements it needs to fight illnesses such as the cold and flu. In addition to supplying your body with B vitamins, selenium, magnesium chloride, and calcium chloride, this IV also provides you with glutathione.

The amino acids glycine, glutamate, and cysteine combine to form glutathione, an antioxidant made by your liver. Adding glutathione to your therapy provides your body with an extra antioxidant boost and strengthens the effects of the other components of your IV blend. Your immune support IV plus glutathione will include the following elements and take approximately 60 minutes to complete:

Metabolic/Weight Loss IV Plus ALA

Losing weight when you’re deficient in metabolism and energy-boosting vitamins is challenging. Trying to ensure you get the vitamins and minerals you need to stay healthy and energized during your weight loss journey can also pose an issue for individuals reducing their calorie intake. A weight loss IV treatment with ALA can help energize you and improve your metabolic health, enabling you to lose weight more easily.

If exercise is part of your weight loss plan, you’ll also appreciate how IV therapy improves your recovery time and provides the energy you need to put in quality workouts. A weight loss IV plus ALA will take about 60 minutes, and you’ll want to eat before your appointment since ALA can cause dips in blood sugar levels. The IV blend consists of the following vitamins and minerals and pairs well with a lipo-C injection for maximum results:

IV Treatment Add-Ons

If you’re looking for a way to make your therapy more effective or jumpstart your weight loss efforts, you’ll want to talk to your practitioner about what add-ons could suit your needs. Depending on the add-on you select, the following extras can be combined with your treatment as part of the IV cocktail or administered via injection.

Glutathione

The antioxidant glutathione helps strengthen your immune system, aids in repairing tissues, and supports the production of vital proteins and chemicals. Since it is an antioxidant, it also neutralizes free radicals, which reduces cell damage caused by oxidation.

When paired with a vitamin blend, glutathione intensifies the positive effects of the other vitamins in the cocktail. Often stressed or run down individuals have lowered glutathione levels and can benefit from adding glutathione to their therapy.

Lipo-C Injections

Lipo-C injections contain vitamins, antioxidants, and amino acids that support a healthy weight loss plan. These injections stimulate metabolism and help your body maintain lean muscle while reducing body fat. Although many individuals seek lipo-C injections for their weight loss benefits, they can also boost your energy levels and improve your hair, skin, and nails.

Lipo-C injections can help you make the most of your weight loss efforts when paired with a healthy diet and exercise routine. If you’re looking for a way to ramp up your weight loss efforts or break through a plateau, you’ll want to discuss lipo-C injections with a professional at Fundamentals Med Spa.

Methylcobalamin

Methylcobalamin is a form of vitamin B-12 that plays a crucial role in maintaining the health of your nervous system and producing red blood cells. When you have a deficiency in B-12, you can experience symptoms such as severe fatigue and neurological issues.

B-12 in the form of methylcobalamin can help increase your energy levels and improve overall health, and you can add it to your therapy every month. Pregnant individuals or those with a prior history of optic nerve damage or cyanocobalamin sensitivity will want to talk to a professional about alternative options for addressing B-12 deficiencies since this add-on is contraindicated for these individuals.

NAD+

NAD+ stands for nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, a crucial enzyme in every cell in your body. It’s involved in nearly endless metabolic functions, such as producing cellular energy, regulating your metabolism, and maintaining mitochondrial health. As you age, the levels of NAD+ in your body decline.

Neurodegeneration, metabolic issues, and signs of aging often accompany lowered levels of NAD+. Adding NAD+ supplementation into your therapy can raise your levels to help you avoid the adverse effects associated with declining NAD+ levels and improve exercise performance and increase insulin sensitivity.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Often Should I Receive Therapy?

The ideal frequency will depend on the patient’s health and the benefits they seek from therapy. You will work with a professional to establish a schedule that suits your health needs. Some add-ons can only be administered periodically.

Are There Side Effects?

Side effects from therapy are uncommon, and your treatment will be administered and monitored by a trained professional. Mild irritation at the injection site and a warm sensation during the treatment are possible effects, but they are usually minor and may even go unnoticed by patients.

Is IV Therapy Better Than Taking Oral Vitamins?

Vitamins consumed orally are not fully absorbed. When you receive IV therapy, nutrients are sent directly into your bloodstream, allowing your body to utilize them more effectively and experience the benefits more quickly.

Give Your Body What It Needs To Thrive With IV Therapy

Don’t let vitamin deficiencies prevent you from living your best, healthiest life. Strengthen your immune system, accelerate your weight loss, or replenish depleted nutrients with IV therapy.
