Frequently asked questions
Is the Immune Boost IV really worth $210?
Consider what one missed workday costs you, or what an urgent care visit runs after a cold turns into something worse. $210 covers a licensed nurse coming to your door, NP oversight, pharmaceutical-grade Vitamin C, Zinc, B-Complex, and IV fluids, all delivered in 45 minutes. Building the same treatment piece by piece at a clinic typically runs $290 to $420 before you factor in your time and travel.
How is this different from a standalone single-ingredient IV?
A single-ingredient Vitamin C IV gives you one tool. The Immune Boost IV gives you three coordinated tools working together. Vitamin C supports white blood cell function, Zinc inhibits viral replication, and B-Complex restores the cellular energy cofactors your body burns through when fighting illness. They work better together than any one of them alone.
Why does this take 45 minutes?
High-dose Vitamin C needs to infuse at a controlled rate. Push it too fast and you get flushing, nausea, or a headache, which defeats the purpose. The 45-minute window lets your nurse run the infusion at a comfortable rate while you sit on your own couch, which most clients say goes by faster than expected.
Can I get the Immune Boost IV regularly?
Yes, and many clients do during cold and flu season or periods of heavy travel. A reasonable cadence is every two to four weeks as preventive support, or as needed at the first sign of feeling run down. For acute illness, one IV at onset and a second one 48 to 72 hours later is a common protocol. Your nurse can help you build a schedule that fits your life.
What if I have never had a comprehensive IV before?
First-time clients are a large part of who we see. Your nurse will walk you through every step, start with a small test flow, and stay with you the entire 45 minutes. Most people are surprised at how relaxed the experience is, especially compared to a clinic. If you have any concerns about needles or how you typically react to vitamins, just tell us during booking and we will adjust.
Do you accept insurance?
IV therapy is typically not covered by insurance, which is true across the industry. Ians IV accepts HSA and FSA cards, cash, and all major credit cards. If you need a receipt with treatment codes for your HSA or FSA reimbursement, just ask and we will provide it.
Why Ians IV for Your Immune Boost IV?
We come to you, the same day you need it
Being sick or run down is the worst time to drive to a clinic and sit in a waiting room. Ians IV brings the full treatment to your couch, your bed, or your hotel room, typically the same day you call.
Licensed nurses, NP-supervised, every treatment
Every Immune Boost IV is reviewed and approved by a Nurse Practitioner and administered by a licensed registered nurse. This is not a medspa side service. It is real clinical care delivered in a comfortable setting.
Pharmaceutical-grade ingredients, transparent dosing
We use the same grade of Vitamin C, Zinc, and B-Complex you would receive in a hospital infusion. Ask us about doses and we will tell you exactly what is in the bag.
Who Books an Immune Boost IV?
You know your body. That scratchy throat at 2pm, the dull ache behind your eyes, the chill that should not be there. You have learned that the first 24 hours decide whether you lose three days or zero. The Immune Boost IV is what you book the moment the signal hits, not after you are already in bed.
One kid brought it home from school, the second one caught it Tuesday, and you are the last one standing. You cannot afford to go down because nobody else is going to make dinner, run carpool, or hold the family together. High-dose Vitamin C and Zinc give your immune system a fighting chance to stay upright through the week.
Red-eye flights, recycled cabin air, hotel gyms, and three time zones in a week wear down even the healthiest immune system. You book the Immune Boost IV the day you land or the day before you leave, because getting sick on a business trip is not an option. The B-Complex addresses the fatigue while the Vitamin C and Zinc handle the exposure.
Wedding weekend, conference, festival, or just a stretch of late nights and poor sleep. You are not technically sick, but you are run down, foggy, and one bad meeting away from a full crash. This IV restores the nutrient reserves your body burned through and gives you a clean reset before the next demand on your calendar.
Your job puts you in front of sick people every single day during the worst months of the year. Hand sanitizer and masks only go so far. A monthly Immune Boost IV through cold and flu season is preventive maintenance, the same way you would service a car you depend on. The Zinc and Vitamin C are working before exposure, not after.

NP reviews and approves your treatment

Nurse arrives. 45 minutes start to finish
Your nurse sets up at your home, office, or hotel and runs the full infusion at a comfortable rate. The 45-minute window allows the Vitamin C to infuse safely without flushing or nausea, which is what happens when high-dose C is pushed too fast.

Full Ingredients Breakdown
| Name | What It Does |
|---|---|
| Higher-Dose Vitamin C | Vitamin C is the cornerstone of this formula. Oral Vitamin C tops out around 200mg of absorption per dose because the gut shuts down uptake. IV delivery bypasses that ceiling and pushes plasma levels 20 to 70 times higher, which is the level at which Vitamin C supports white blood cell function, antibody production, and the antioxidant defense your body needs when fighting a viral load. |
| Zinc | Zinc is the mineral your immune cells need to actually do their job. It directly inhibits viral replication, supports T-cell development, and shortens the duration of upper respiratory infections in clinical studies. Most adults are mildly deficient and do not know it. IV delivery gets it into circulation immediately, no absorption guesswork. |
| B-Complex | When you are run down or fighting something off, your B vitamins are the first nutrients depleted. The full B-Complex in this formula, including B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, and B12, restores the cofactors your cells need for energy production and immune cell replication. This is why you feel the lift in clarity and energy within the same session, not just the immune support days later. |
| IV Fluids | Dehydration is silent and almost universal when you are sick or run down. The saline base rehydrates you at the cellular level in 45 minutes, which is something no amount of water bottles can match. Proper hydration also helps your kidneys clear the metabolic waste from fighting infection. |
