What are the potential side effects of IV therapy?

Most people tolerate IV therapy well, but it’s important to be aware of potential side effects:

Common (Generally Mild and Temporary):

  • Insertion Site Issues: Bruising, redness, pain, or swelling where the IV was inserted.
  • Headaches or Dizziness: These may occur temporarily due to changes in fluid levels.
  • Feeling Cold: Some people feel a bit chilly during the infusion due to the room-temperature fluids entering their body.

Less Common (May Require Medical Attention):

  • Infection: Very rare with sterile procedures, but may cause redness, pain, warmth, and pus at the IV site.
  • Fluid Overload: Receiving too much fluid can strain the heart and lungs, usually a concern for those with heart or kidney issues.
  • Allergic Reactions: Ingredients in some IV formulas could trigger reactions in sensitive individuals.
  • Electrolyte Imbalances: Can occur in certain cases, potentially leading to symptoms like muscle weakness or changes in heart rhythm.

Safety Measures at AIVI Aesthetics:

  • Consultation: Your health history is reviewed to identify potential risks.
  • Monitoring: You’ll be monitored during your infusion for any adverse reactions.
  • Formula Customization: IV solutions are tailored to your needs to minimize the likelihood of side effects.
