Vitamin infusion therapy, or iv drip therapy, has gained popularity for its potential to boost energy, improve overall well-being, and address nutrient deficiencies. However, like any medical treatment, it's essential to understand the potential side effects to make informed decisions about your health.

Common Side Effects

  1. Discomfort at the Injection Site: It's not uncommon to experience mild pain, bruising, or swelling at the injection site. These effects are usually temporary and resolve quickly.

  2. Allergic Reactions: Although rare, some individuals may be allergic to the substances used in the infusion. Signs of an allergic reaction may include itching, rash, or difficulty breathing.

  3. Infection Risk: Anytime a needle punctures the skin, there is a small risk of infection. Reputable providers follow strict protocols to minimize this risk, but it's essential to be aware.

  4. Electrolyte Imbalances: Intravenous therapy can alter electrolyte levels in the body. This is usually a concern for individuals with existing electrolyte imbalances or certain medical conditions.

  5. Fluid Overload: In rare cases, receiving too much fluid too quickly can lead to fluid overload, causing swelling, shortness of breath, or heart-related issues.
