IV Infusions & Vitamin Injections
Intravenous (IV) Nutrition Therapy delivers fluids and selected nutrients directly through a vein. Because delivery bypasses the digestive system, it can be useful in certain clinical scenarios (like hydration or documented deficiencies) when guided by a medical professional. Safety, appropriateness, and dosing should always be individualized.

WHAT IT IS
Clinical hydration, nutrient support, and recovery-focused options
IV fluids are commonly used to treat dehydration and maintain fluid balance. IV nutrient support may be considered in select cases (for example, when someone has trouble absorbing nutrients, has increased needs, or has a confirmed deficiency). At Refresh LA, we focus on a calm, medically guided experience and conservative, appropriate recommendations.
Hydration + electrolytes
Support fluid balance—especially when you’re depleted.
Targeted nutrients
When indicated, nutrients can be delivered directly through IV.
Efficient appointment
Most visits are designed to be straightforward and comfortable.

INFUSION MENU
Refined blends, tailored to your goals
Ingredient selection and dosing should be clinician-guided. We’ll discuss goals, health history, medications, and any lab needs before recommending an option.
Beauty Drip
(Thioctic Acid, Vitamin C, Glutathione)
A blend centered on antioxidant support. Common goals include a brighter-looking complexion and overall “refresh” support. Your clinician will review whether this fits your needs and safety profile.
Dr. Vee Elixir

A classic IV nutrient combination often discussed for fatigue support and overall wellness—evidence varies by use case. We’ll review whether it’s appropriate for you.
NAD+
NAD+ is a molecule involved in cellular energy metabolism. Some people pursue IV NAD+ for wellness goals; research is still emerging, and suitability should be clinician-guided.
Glutathione
Glutathione is an antioxidant present in the body. It may be discussed for oxidative-stress support. The right approach depends on your health history and goals.
Vitaglut Complex
(Vitamin C, Glutathione, B Complex Vitamins)
A combined option centered on antioxidant and B-complex nutrient support—commonly selected for metabolism/energy-support goals when clinically appropriate.
Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 supports red blood cell formation and nervous system function. Injections may be considered when deficiency is confirmed or absorption is impaired. We’ll review labs and symptoms to guide selection.
Vitamin C
Vitamin C supports collagen synthesis and immune function. Dosing and route depend on your goals and medical history. We follow a safety-first approach and review contraindications.
Vitamin D
Vitamin D supports bone health and other body functions. Deficiency is common and typically addressed with clinician-guided supplementation. We can discuss testing and a tailored plan.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Simple, clear answers—no fluff.
What is IV Nutrition Therapy?
IV therapy delivers fluids (and in some cases, nutrients) directly into a vein. IV fluids are commonly used to prevent or treat dehydration, and nutrient delivery may be considered for specific needs under clinician guidance.
What is the appointment like?
A clinician reviews your goals and medical history, places an IV, and monitors you during the infusion. Comfort and sterile technique are prioritized. Timing varies by infusion type.
Are there risks or side effects?
Any IV can have risks, including bruising or infection at the insertion site. Rare but serious risks can include blood clots. Your clinician will review risks and determine suitability.
How long do results last?
Experiences vary. Some people feel benefits for a few days; others notice changes longer depending on baseline status, hydration, nutrient levels, and overall health.
Do I need labs?
Sometimes. If symptoms suggest a deficiency (like B12 or Vitamin D), labs can help guide a more precise plan and avoid unnecessary dosing.
Disclaimer: IV therapy can cause blood clots to form. Clots can block important blood vessels and cause problems such as tissue damage or death. Deep vein thrombosis is one type of dangerous blood clot that IV treatment can cause.
