Quick Intro

What Is an “Immune Support IV”?
A physician-selected IV blend designed to support hydration and general immune function during times of stress (e.g., travel, seasonal colds). Formulations typically include:
- Balanced fluids & electrolytes for hydration
- Vitamins and trace minerals (tailored by the doctor after a brief check)
- Optional symptom-targeted medicines (only if clinically appropriate)
Note: Exact ingredients and dosing are individualized after an in-clinic assessment.
Who It’s For (Common Use Cases)
- Jet lag, long flights, or intensive work weeks
- Seasonal bugs going around the office or family
- Post-illness recovery when hydration is hard to maintain
- Busy travelers seeking quick, English-friendly care in Gangnam
How Your Visit Works (Step-by-Step)
- Check-in → share symptoms, meds, allergies, and travel history.
- Brief medical exam → vitals and focused questions; tests if needed.
- Doctor plan → confirms candidacy and selects an appropriate IV.
- IV session → typically 30–60 minutes in a comfortable room.
- Discharge guidance → simple after-care in clear English; prescriptions if indicated.
Safety First
IV therapy isn’t for everyone. Please inform the doctor if you:
- Are pregnant/breastfeeding or have kidney, heart, or liver conditions
- Have a history of G6PD deficiency or are on anticoagulants/diuretics
- Recently had major surgery or an active infection requiring hospital care
Possible mild effects: temporary chill, metallic taste, small bruise at IV site. Seek immediate help for persistent dizziness, shortness of breath, or chest pain.
What to Expect After
- Hydration & energy often feel improved within hours to the next day.
- Keep hydrating (water or oral rehydration) and rest as advised.
- Follow-up if symptoms persist; IVs are supportive, not curative.
