Metro Detroit mobile IV therapy FAQs
General Questions
IV therapy is a medical service that delivers fluids and selected nutrients or medications through a small catheter placed into a vein. Because it bypasses the digestive tract, IV therapy can support hydration and nutrient delivery more directly than oral intake; your clinician can help determine which IV service fits your goals and health history.
IV therapy is a medical service and is not risk-free, so purelyIV uses licensed clinicians, intake review, sterile technique, quality-sourced supplies, and RN monitoring to reduce risk. Share your health history, allergies, medications, and pregnancy status before booking so the clinician can review whether the visit is appropriate.
Drinking fluids, eating well, and oral supplements are the normal first choices for routine hydration and nutrition. IV therapy uses a different delivery route because fluid and approved ingredients enter a vein during the infusion. That direct route may be useful in selected situations, but it does not make IV therapy automatically better or necessary.

There is no single IV schedule that is right for everyone. Frequency depends on your goals, health history, response to prior visits, and the service being considered. Some people book occasional or as-needed visits; recurring or specialty care should follow clinician guidance.

purelyIV combines concierge service with clinical oversight, RN-delivered visits, and clear intake review before care. Most standard IV drips use 1000ml bags, and our team focuses on thoughtful communication, comfort, and a professional mobile visit experience.
A licensed RN administers the mobile IV and stays with you throughout the infusion. First visits include an RN-initiated web chat with a nurse practitioner for the Good Faith Exam. On later visits, the RN can involve the NP again when something changes or a clinical question needs direct review.

Most standard IV visits take about 45 to 75 minutes, including setup, infusion time, and monitoring. NAD+ and some specialty services can take longer, and first appointments may need extra time for intake or clinical review.
Your appointment time is reserved for you, so we ask for at least 24 hours' notice for cancellations or appointment changes. Late cancellations or missed appointments may result in a fee charged to the card on file.
Your body uses the fluid it needs and eliminates extra fluid through urine, with timing affected by hydration status, kidney function, and the treatment itself. How long you notice any benefit varies by person, so IV hydration should be viewed as support rather than a promised lasting result.
Nausea is uncommon but can happen with IV therapy. Tell your RN if you have a history of nausea or feel uncomfortable during the visit so they can slow, pause, or adjust care as appropriate.
In most cases, yes. A light meal or snack before your visit can help with comfort, and your clinician will let you know if a specific service has different instructions.
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your OB-GYN or physician before considering IV therapy. Some services may not be appropriate, and purelyIV may require written clearance and clinician review before scheduling care.
You may feel a brief pinch when the IV is placed, and mild soreness or bruising can happen. Most clients are comfortable once the IV is in place, but tell your RN if anything feels painful or unusual.
Your intake asks about allergies, medications, and prior reactions so the clinician can review risk before care. If symptoms occur during or after a visit, tell your RN immediately; severe symptoms such as trouble breathing, swelling, or chest pain require emergency care.
A 503B outsourcing facility is an FDA-registered compounding pharmacy that can prepare certain sterile medications in larger batches under federal quality standards. Using appropriate 503B sources can support consistency and safety, but each service still requires the right clinical review for the client.
Yes, group visits may be available when scheduling, staffing, and the visit setting are appropriate. Contact us with the number of people, services you are considering, and preferred timing so the team can coordinate the next step.
Complete your intake and consent forms before the appointment. Unless your clinician gives different instructions, eat normally, drink water, take your usual medications as directed, and prepare a clean, comfortable place for you and the RN. Send parking, building, room, or access instructions before the visit when needed.

Your RN removes the IV, checks the site, applies a bandage, and reviews any treatment-specific instructions. Many people return to normal activities after a routine visit, but responses vary. Continue normal hydration and nutrition unless your clinician gives you different instructions.
Learn more: Mobile IV aftercare guidance
Contact purelyIV if you develop increasing redness, worsening pain, warmth, swelling, drainage, persistent bleeding, fever, or another unexpected symptom. The team can help determine whether routine guidance, NP review, or another care setting is appropriate. Call 911 or seek emergency care for severe trouble breathing, chest pain, fainting, swelling of the face or throat, stroke symptoms, or another severe or rapidly worsening reaction.

Routine follow-up is not automatically required after every standard IV visit. Contact the team if you have questions, an unexpected response, persistent or returning symptoms, or are considering recurring care. Labs, specialty treatments, and clinician-directed plans may have their own follow-up requirements.
Learn more: Follow-up after a mobile IV visit
Labs are not required before every routine hydration or wellness IV. They may be useful when symptoms persist, goals are more specific, or results would change the treatment plan. Some specialty services have required testing, including a recent CBC and iron panel for iron infusion, a recent G6PD result for high-dose vitamin C, and required labs for PlaqueX.
