FAQs and Resources

What is IV therapy?

IV therapy delivers medications, nutrients, and/or fluids directly into your bloodstream. IV therapy is superior to oral administration of these compounds because the delivery bypasses your gastrointestinal system. You only absorb about 20% of the valuable elements in nutrients and fluids when taken orally. 

When administered by IV, the vitamins, minerals, medications, and other valuable elements are available immediately for use by your body. You relax in a private room with a television and music as you receive your infusions. 

Who benefits from IV therapy?

Altimate Care and Services, LLC providers may recommend IV therapy to patients with inadequate hydration. Other symptoms that respond well to IV therapy include:

  • Fatigue
  • Brain fog

You benefit from IV hydration therapy if you are recovering from an illness, participated in high-intensity exercise, traveled recently, or overdid alcohol consumption.
