Yes — when performed by qualified healthcare professionals. At Aurevia, every patient undergoes a clinical assessment before treatment. All drips use pharmaceutical-grade ingredients in sterile preparation. Treatments are administered by our trained clinical team within formulations developed and overseen by our supervising physician.

Who will administer my IV drip treatment?

Your treatment may be administered by a registered nurse or another qualified healthcare practitioner. All formulations have been developed and approved by our supervising physician, who maintains clinical oversight of every treatment protocol.

How long does an IV drip take?

Sessions range from 30 minutes (Hydration Boost) to 4 hours (NAD+ Longevity). Most popular drips take 45–90 minutes.

Why is IV therapy better than oral supplements?

IV delivery achieves 100% bioavailability — every nutrient reaches your bloodstream directly, bypassing the digestive system. IV Vitamin C achieves plasma concentrations up to 70 times higher than the maximum achievable orally. Nutrients like Glutathione and NAD+ are largely destroyed before absorption when taken orally.
