Why book mobile IV therapy in San Francisco with us
We come to you
A registered nurse brings everything to your apartment, hotel or office across San Francisco and parts of the East Bay and Peninsula, so you never cross the city.
Screened before your drip
A licensed clinician reviews your health in a 5–10 minute phone or video call first, because extra fluid can be risky with some heart, kidney or pregnancy concerns.
Transparent drip pricing
The $199 base covers a saline hydration bag with a nurse at your door. Any vitamins, minerals or medicines you add are shown for approval first.
Sterile and monitored
Your nurse uses sterile, single-use supplies, checks your vital signs during the infusion and takes away needles and medical waste when you're done.

What is mobile IV therapy in San Francisco?
San Francisco is compact on a map but slow to cross. Hills, one-way streets, scarce parking and fog-to-sun microclimates make a trip to a clinic more effort than it should be, especially when you feel unwell. With mobile IV therapy, you stay in your apartment, hotel room or office, and a registered nurse comes to you.
The process starts with a licensed clinician reviewing your health. The nurse then checks your vital signs, places a small catheter in a vein and runs a bag of saline and electrolytes, with any vitamins or medicines your clinician has approved. You can answer email, watch something or nap while it drips. When the bag is done, the nurse removes the line and takes everything away.
Cool, foggy days don't stop you from losing fluid during travel, illness, a big night or a hard workout. A drip can help you rehydrate, but it doesn't replace medical care for an illness. Emergencies still mean calling 911.

San Francisco IV drip menu and prices
The $199 base covers a standard saline bag with a nurse at your door. Your clinician may approve B vitamins, vitamin C, calcium, magnesium and other minerals, an amino acid blend, glutathione, zinc or medicines for nausea or pain like ondansetron or ketorolac. Popular combinations include a Myers'-style blend, a hangover drip, athletic recovery, a skin and hair drip and immune support. Each addition raises the total, which you see and approve first.
NAD+ is offered at 500 mg or 1,000 mg and infused slowly over two to four hours. It's compounded by licensed U.S. pharmacies and is not FDA-approved.
IV therapy at your apartment, hotel or office
Many San Francisco homes are walk-ups or have shared entrances. Add your buzzer code, unit number and any parking tips to your booking so the nurse can reach you quickly with equipment. In hotels, tell the front desk a visitor is coming.
Any clean, well-lit room works if it has a chair or bed and an outlet nearby. For an office, choose a private space rather than an open-plan desk.
Mobile IV therapy side effects and safety
With a trained nurse and sterile technique, IV therapy is generally well tolerated by healthy adults. A clinician screens you beforehand because extra fluid can be risky with some conditions.
- Expect a pinch at insertion, a cool arm and possibly a bruise
- Swelling near the catheter can mean fluid is outside the vein; the nurse will stop and adjust
- Tell your clinician about heart or kidney disease, high blood pressure or pregnancy
- Report itching, rash, wheezing or lightheadedness during the drip right away
- Chest pain, confusion or fainting are emergencies; call 911

Book a free IV screeningHow much does IV therapy cost in San Francisco?
Drips start at $199 for saline hydration with a registered nurse. Vitamins, medicines and NAD+ cost extra, and you approve the full price before the nurse begins.
Do you offer mobile IV therapy in Oakland, Berkeley or the Peninsula?
Nurses cover parts of Oakland, Berkeley and the Peninsula as well as San Francisco itself. Check with the care team if you're unsure about your address.
Can an IV nurse come to my hotel near Moscone Center?
Yes. Nurses can set up in hotel rooms around SoMa, Union Square and beyond. Book early during big conference weeks.
Can a nurse come to a walk-up apartment?
No. Just include your buzzer code, unit number and any stair or entry notes in your booking so the nurse can find you.
Can I work during an IV drip?
Yes. Most people answer email, take calls or watch something. Keep the arm with the catheter fairly still.
How long does a mobile IV drip take?
Plan for about an hour; the drip itself usually runs 30 to 60 minutes once the line is in. NAD+ can take two to four hours.
Do I need to see a doctor before an IV drip?
No. A licensed clinician screens you by phone or video in about 5–10 minutes, and the nurse checks your vital signs when they arrive.
Does IV therapy help after a red-eye flight?
Some travelers find it helps them feel rehydrated after a long, dry flight. Drinking water and resting are still the first steps.
Can my team book IV drips at the office?
Yes, if there's a private room with seating and power. Tell us how many people so enough nurses are scheduled.
Does insurance cover IV therapy in San Francisco?
No. Wellness drips are self-pay, and insurance isn't required. You see the price before confirming.
Is NAD+ IV therapy FDA-approved?
No. NAD+ for IV use is compounded by licensed U.S. pharmacies and is not FDA-approved, and evidence in people is still limited.
How should I prepare for an IV drip?
Drink water normally, eat something light, wear a loose or short-sleeved top and have a list of your medicines and allergies ready.
Can I get an IV drip for a cold or flu?
If you're mildly dehydrated from a cold or stomach bug, your clinician may approve fluids and vitamins. A drip doesn't treat the infection itself, and trouble breathing, a high fever that won't come down or chest pain need in-person care.
Do you offer mobile IV therapy outside the Bay Area?
Sacramento has its own service area and page, and so do the Southern California metros. Areas outside our listed coverage aren't served yet.
