They are not a replacement for a balanced diet, rest, or treatment of an underlying illness, and they do not cure disease.

Who is IV nutrient therapy for?
- Adults who want supportive care when feeling tired or run down, after a doctor's assessment
- People who have discussed specific ingredients, such as glutathione, with the doctor
- People who also want to check common deficiencies, such as with a vitamin D test
IV drips may not be suitable if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have kidney, liver or heart problems, have allergies to any ingredient, or take certain medicines. Persistent fatigue can have medical causes, such as anemia or thyroid problems, which need proper testing.
How does an IV drip work at the clinic?
- Consultation in English: Dr. Eun asks about your symptoms, health conditions, allergies and medicines.
- Choice of drip: The doctor explains which drip may be suitable and what it contains.
- IV placement: A thin needle is placed in a vein in your arm.

- After the drip: The needle is removed and you can usually return to normal activities.
Is IV nutrient therapy safe?
Possible side effects include bruising, pain or swelling at the needle site, a cool feeling in the arm, flushing, nausea or lightheadedness. Some ingredients can cause allergic reactions, which are rare but can be serious. Tell staff right away if you feel unwell during the drip. Because Laennec is made from human placenta, some countries' blood services restrict donation after receiving it; check with your blood service if this matters to you.
