When you are too depleted to keep fluids down or you need faster recovery support, at-home IV therapy can deliver hydration and nutrients directly — without going to a clinic. Here is what SickDay’s service includes and how to decide if it is right for you.
Quick answer
IV therapy delivers hydration, electrolytes, and vitamins directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. It can provide faster recovery support when oral fluids are not working adequately. A licensed medical clinician will evaluate whether it is appropriate for your situation.
What SickDay’s IV therapy includes
Treatments are designed to take approximately 45 minutes at your location. SickDay charges a flat fee for IV therapy sessions. Coverage extends across all five NYC boroughs. A licensed medical clinician administers the treatment and monitors the session.
Common use cases
IV therapy is commonly used for recovery from stomach illness or food poisoning when dehydration is significant, flu symptom support, hangover recovery, migraine management, jet lag and travel fatigue, and general immunity support. The appropriate blend depends on your symptoms and a brief clinical evaluation.
What’s in typical blends
Most IV therapy blends include a base of IV fluids and electrolytes. Vitamins such as B-complex, vitamin C, and zinc may be added depending on the goal. Medications for nausea, pain, or inflammation may be included when clinically appropriate and agreed upon with the clinician.
Pricing and timing
SickDay lists a flat fee for IV therapy. Confirm current pricing when booking. Treatment typically takes about 45 minutes from start to finish. A licensed medical clinician will be present throughout the session.
Who should not get IV therapy without evaluation
If you have a history of heart failure, kidney disease, or conditions affecting fluid balance, IV therapy requires careful evaluation first. A licensed medical clinician will review your history before starting any treatment. For emergencies like severe allergic reactions, confusion, or chest pain — call 911 immediately.
