Question 1

What is mobile IV therapy?

Accepted Answer

Mobile IV therapy delivers essential vitamins, minerals, and hydration directly into your bloodstream via an intravenous line. Because we come to your home, office, or hotel, you receive clinical-grade wellness treatments in a comfortable, private environment.

Question 2

Who administers the IVs and treatments?

Accepted Answer

All treatments are administered exclusively by fully licensed Registered Nurses (RNs) with extensive backgrounds in ER or ICU care. They operate under the direct protocols of our board-certified Medical Director.

Question 3

How long does an appointment take?

Accepted Answer

A typical IV hydration session takes about 45 to 60 minutes from setup to completion. Standalone vitamin injections take less than 15 minutes. We advise allocating a little extra time for your first visit for a brief medical assessment.

Question 4

Do you accept insurance?

Accepted Answer

We are a strictly private-pay, concierge service. We do not bill health insurance, Medicare, or Medicaid. However, we can provide an itemized receipt upon request if you wish to submit it to your HSA/FSA provider for potential reimbursement.

Question 5

What should I expect during my first visit?

Accepted Answer

Our nurse will arrive at your location, perform a brief physical assessment (checking vitals and reviewing your health history), and help you select the best treatment. They will then comfortably place the IV. During the drip, you can work, read, watch TV, or simply relax.

Question 6

Are there any side effects?

Accepted Answer

Side effects are rare but can include slight bruising or soreness at the injection site. Because we use premium compounding pharmacies and highly experienced nurses, complications are minimal. Your nurse will monitor you throughout the process.

Your nurse monitors you throughout the entire session, and all protocols are overseen by our board-certified Medical Director.

Question 10

Do I need a doctor's prescription for IV therapy?

Question 14

What is glutathione and why should I add it?

Accepted Answer

Glutathione is often called the body's 'master antioxidant.' It plays a crucial role in detoxification, immune function, and cellular repair. Adding a Glutathione Push (+$35) to any IV drip provides powerful antioxidant support, promotes skin brightening, and helps your liver detoxify more efficiently. It is especially popular with our Beauty Bag clients and anyone seeking anti-aging benefits.

Question 15

Can IV therapy help with migraines and headaches?

Accepted Answer

Yes, IV therapy is highly effective for migraines. Our dedicated Migraine Cocktail ($229) includes Magnesium to support neurological function, plus Zofran for nausea relief and Toradol for pain relief. Our nurses have ER-level experience treating migraines, and many clients report relief within 20 minutes of starting the infusion.

Question 16

Is My IV Nurse a veteran-owned business?

Accepted Answer

Yes, My IV Nurse is proudly veteran-owned. Co-founder Matthew Halliday served in the United States Navy as an IT Specialist. His military background brings discipline, precision, and a service-first mentality to every aspect of our operations. We are proud to offer special discounts to active-duty military, veterans, first responders, firefighters, and law enforcement.

Question 17

How fast can a nurse get to my location?

Accepted Answer

We offer same-day appointments across all of Pinellas County, often within 1-2 hours of your request. Our nurses are stationed throughout the county for rapid response. We are available 7 days a week, including holidays and weekends, from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM. You can book online, call, or text (727) 452-5274 for immediate scheduling.

Question 18

What is the difference between IV therapy and drinking water?

Accepted Answer

When you drink water, your digestive system can only absorb about 200-400ml per hour, and much of it passes through without being fully utilized. IV therapy delivers 1000ml of saline with electrolytes directly into your bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system entirely. This means 100% absorption and results you can feel within 30-45 minutes. IV therapy is especially effective when you are already dehydrated, because your body cannot catch up through oral hydration alone.

Question 19

Can I get IV therapy while pregnant or breastfeeding?

Accepted Answer

We recommend consulting with your OB/GYN or midwife before receiving IV therapy during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Many pregnant women benefit from IV hydration, especially for morning sickness relief, but we require written clearance from your provider. Your nurse will review your medical history and pregnancy status during the health screening before any treatment.

Question 20

Do you offer IV therapy for groups or parties?

Accepted Answer

Yes! We specialize in group IV therapy for bridal parties, bachelor/bachelorette weekends, corporate wellness events, sports teams, birthday celebrations, and more. Groups of 3 or more save 15% per person. We bring all equipment and can set up in your home, hotel suite, vacation rental, or event venue anywhere in Pinellas County. Contact us for custom group packages.

Question 22

What qualifications do your nurses have?

Every nurse on our team has emergency room, ICU, or acute care experience, ensuring the highest standard of patient safety.

Question 23

How often should I get IV therapy?

Accepted Answer

The frequency depends on your goals. For general wellness maintenance, most clients benefit from monthly IV sessions. For active recovery, athletic performance, or chronic conditions, bi-weekly sessions may be ideal. Our Monthly Wellness Membership ($199/month) starts with Cellular Reset (months 1-3), then advances to Cellular Rewind with NAD+ (month 4+). Members get 10% off additional drips and add-ons, priority booking, and no travel fees.

Question 24

What is glutathione and should I add it to my IV?

Accepted Answer

Glutathione is often called the body's 'master antioxidant.' It plays a crucial role in detoxification, immune function, and cellular repair. Adding a Glutathione Push (+$35) to any IV drip provides powerful antioxidant support, promotes skin brightening, and helps your liver detoxify more efficiently. It is especially popular with our Beauty Bag clients and anyone seeking anti-aging benefits.

Question 25

Do you offer same-day appointments on weekends and holidays?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we are available 7 days a week including all weekends, holidays, and special events. This is especially helpful for hangover recovery after beach weekends, holiday celebrations, and vacation recovery.

Question 26

What is the cancellation policy?

Accepted Answer

We understand that plans change. We ask for at least 2 hours notice for cancellations or rescheduling. This allows us to offer that appointment time to other clients who may need care. If you need to cancel or reschedule, simply call or text us at (727) 452-5274.

Question 27

Is there a Good Faith Exam fee, and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Florida regulations require a brief Good Faith Exam by our supervising medical provider before your first IV therapy or injection visit. It's a one-time $20 charge added to your first appointment only, and it remains valid for 12 months — every return visit during that window has no additional exam fee.

Question 28

Can IV therapy help with Florida heat exhaustion?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Florida's intense heat and humidity make dehydration and heat exhaustion very common, especially in Pinellas County during summer months. IV hydration is the fastest and most effective treatment for heat-related dehydration because it replaces fluids and electrolytes directly into your bloodstream. Our Simply Hydrate drip ($125) provides a full bag of saline and can have you feeling better in under an hour.

Question 29

Do you offer military and first responder discounts?

Accepted Answer

Yes! As a veteran-owned company, we are proud to offer exclusive discounts to active-duty military, veterans, firefighters, EMS, police, and all first responders. Use code HERO20 at booking for 20% off any service. We believe those who serve our community deserve premium wellness care at a preferred rate.
