IV & Injection Therapy 

IV stands for intravenous, which refers to the administration of substances directly into a vein. Injection therapy, on the other hand, is a broader term that encompasses various types of injections either intramuscular or subcutaneous for therapeutic purposes.

IV therapy involves the infusion of fluids (normal saline), medications, or nutrients directly into the bloodstream. It can be used to deliver a wide range of substances, including vitamins, minerals, electrolytes, and medications. IV and injection therapy allows for rapid absorption and can bypass the digestive system, leading to faster effects.

Some examples of vitamins or minerals that may be administered via intravenous, intramuscular and/ or subcutaneous injection include one or more of the following:

1. Vitamin C: Used for immune support, antioxidant benefits, and collagen production.

2. Vitamin B12: Often used to address deficiencies, boost energy levels, and support nerve function.

3. Magnesium: Administered for muscle relaxation, migraine relief, and overall energy production.

4. Calcium: Given to treat calcium deficiencies, support bone health, and aid in muscle function.

5. Iron: Used to treat iron-deficiency anemia and improve energy levels.

6. Glutathione: An antioxidant that may be used for detoxification, skin brightening, and immune support.

7. Zinc- Essential for immune function, wound healing and enzyme activity. 

8. Selenium- Acts as an antioxidant, supports thyroid function and plays a role in DNA synthesis.
