IV therapy and NAD+ infusions are now offered everywhere from medical clinics to walk-in lounges. If you are considering them, it is worth asking a few questions before you choose where to go.
Who reviews your health before an infusion?
An infusion is a medical procedure. Before your first one, a clinician should review your health history and current medications and confirm that IV therapy is appropriate for you. Ask who does this review, and what happens if they decide it is not a good fit.
What is known, and what is not
IV therapy delivers fluids and nutrients directly into the bloodstream. NAD+ is a coenzyme found in every cell, and NAD+ infusions are offered as part of some wellness plans. Research on many wellness uses of IV therapy is still developing.
A trustworthy clinic will be straightforward about this, rather than promising specific results.
Red flags when comparing clinics
No health review before your first infusion
Big promises such as “detox,” “cure” or guaranteed results
No trained clinical staff monitoring you during the infusion
Unclear information about what is in the infusion and why
The right setting is calm, private and medical, with people who check your health first and stay with you throughout.
