Every medical procedure carries risk, making it critical to disclose your medical history to your provider. That said, IV therapy services are generally safe when administered by trained medical professionals.
The primary risk associated with this treatment is infection or damage to the vein from the needle. However, the chances of adverse effects are generally remote with proper sterilization and needle placement. While rare, blood clots and air embolisms are possible. These typically result from IV Therapy sessions administered by untrained or non-medical personnel who don’t have extensive experience with finding blood vessels, using IV bags, or administering vitamin infusions.
