IV Vitamin Therapy at Mascot Healthcare

IV (intravenous) therapy delivers vitamins, minerals, and fluids directly into the bloodstream — bypassing the digestive system for 100% bioavailability. This makes it more effective than oral supplements for patients with absorption issues or those needing rapid repletion.

Important: IV vitamin therapy is supportive, not curative. It is not a substitute for proper nutrition, medical treatment of underlying conditions, or evidence-based medicine. At Mascot Healthcare, we discuss realistic expectations before any drip is started.

What we offer

  • Vitamin B12 injection (IM): The most evidence-based vitamin injection — genuinely needed for patients with B12 deficiency (vegans, those with pernicious anaemia, metformin users). Hydroxocobalamin IM 1mg. Symptoms: fatigue, neuropathy, macrocytic anaemia.
  • Hydration drip (IV normal saline): For dehydration from illness, vomiting, or heat — genuine clinical need. 500ml–1L normal saline with electrolytes.
  • Vitamin C infusion (IV): High-dose ascorbic acid — antioxidant support, immune modulation. Evidence for clinical benefit is limited outside severe deficiency.
  • Energy/recovery drip: B-complex vitamins + vitamin C + magnesium + saline — popular post-illness or for general fatigue. Benefit most pronounced in patients with documented nutritional deficiency.
  • Multivitamin infusion: Comprehensive vitamin and mineral IV support for patients unable to absorb oral supplements.

All IV therapy at Mascot Healthcare is administered by trained clinical staff and supervised by a qualified doctor. A brief pre-treatment assessment is performed. We do not administer drips in unmonitored settings or without clinical oversight.

The procedure

Step by Step

1

Pre-treatment assessment

Brief medical review — blood pressure, current medications, allergies, and clinical indication. Ensures the drip is appropriate and safe for you.

2

IV cannula insertion

A small IV cannula is inserted into a vein in the forearm or hand. A brief sting during insertion — then no ongoing pain.

3

Drip administration

The vitamin or fluid solution runs over 30–60 minutes depending on the drip type. You sit comfortably in the treatment room. Vital signs monitored.

4

Cannula removal

The cannula is removed and a small plaster applied. You may leave immediately and drive yourself home.

Safety and risks

  • Bruising at cannula site: Common, resolves in a few days
  • Phlebitis (vein inflammation): Uncommon — warm compress if it occurs
  • Allergic reaction: Rare — we keep resuscitation equipment available
  • Fluid overload: Risk in patients with heart or kidney failure — the pre-treatment assessment screens for this

Who should not have IV vitamin therapy?

Patients with significant heart failure, severe kidney disease, or known allergy to components of the drip should discuss with the doctor before proceeding. Pregnant women should avoid high-dose vitamin C infusions.

Questions

FAQs

How much is an IV drip in Lagos?
IV vitamin therapy pricing at Mascot Healthcare depends on the drip type — from a simple B12 injection to a comprehensive multi-vitamin infusion. Call 0816 586 6252 or WhatsApp for current pricing.
Will an IV drip cure my fatigue?
If your fatigue is caused by B12 deficiency, iron deficiency, dehydration, or a genuine nutritional gap, IV therapy can provide significant benefit. If fatigue is from poor sleep, chronic stress, hypothyroidism, or diabetes — those underlying conditions need treating, not just a vitamin drip. We assess the cause before recommending a drip.
Is IV therapy at a clinic safer than at a spa or wellness centre?
Yes. IV therapy requires a clinical setting with trained staff, resuscitation equipment, and medical oversight. Unmonitored IV therapy in spas or unregistered wellness centres carries genuine risks — including infection, air embolism, and unrecognised allergic reactions. Mascot Healthcare provides IV therapy in a proper clinical environment with a doctor present.
