The IV Iron Therapy Process
Every IV Iron Therapy treatment follows three key steps—customized to fit your specific iron levels and health needs.
-
Evaluate
We begin with a thorough review of your recent blood work (CBC and iron panel) and medical history to determine if IV iron therapy is the best option for you.
-
Infuse
Iron is delivered directly into your bloodstream via an IV infusion, ensuring optimal absorption. The process takes 30–60 minutes under medical supervision.
-
Monitor
After your infusion, we provide post-care guidance and recommend follow-up blood work in 4 weeks to assess improvements in iron levels and overall well-being.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, IV Iron Therapy is a safe and well-tolerated treatment when administered by medical professionals. Our team follows strict protocols to ensure patient safety, including:
- Pre-infusion screening to confirm eligibility and avoid complications.
- Careful dosage administration to reduce the risk of side effects.
- Onsite medical monitoring during and after the infusion.
While oral iron supplements are commonly used to treat mild iron deficiency, they are not always effective for everyone. Here’s how IV Iron Therapy differs:
Absorption & Efficiency: Oral iron supplements must be absorbed through the digestive system, which can be slow and inefficient. Some people experience poor absorption due to conditions like Crohn’s disease, Celiac disease, or gastric bypass surgery. IV Iron Therapy bypasses the digestive tract entirely, ensuring iron is delivered directly into the bloodstream for faster results.
Time to See Results: Oral iron supplements can take several weeks to months to improve iron levels. IV Iron Therapy provides a much quicker boost, with most patients noticing symptom relief within 24-48 hours.
Gastrointestinal Side Effects: Oral iron is notorious for causing constipation, nausea, stomach pain, and bloating. IV iron eliminates these digestive side effects, making it a preferred option for those who cannot tolerate oral supplements.
Severity of Deficiency: For individuals with severe iron deficiency anemia, chronic blood loss, or conditions that prevent iron absorption, oral supplements alone may not be sufficient. IV Iron Therapy delivers higher doses of iron in a controlled, medical setting, making it more effective for moderate to severe cases.
We offer two IV Iron Infusion dosages to suit individual needs:
100mg Iron Infusion – A moderate dose, ideal for first-time patients or those requiring a smaller replenishment. This option allows us to assess tolerance before increasing dosage in future treatments.
200mg Iron Infusion – A higher-dose option, recommended for individuals with prior IV iron therapy experience or those with more significant deficiencies requiring a larger replenishment.
Both infusions are administered in a controlled medical environment, ensuring patient safety and comfort.
The entire infusion process typically lasts 30–60 minutes. During this time:
- You will be seated in a comfortable setting.
- A medical provider will insert an IV line into your arm.
- The iron solution is slowly infused into your bloodstream.
- You can relax, read, or listen to music during the procedure.
Afterward, you’ll be monitored for a short period to ensure there are no immediate reactions before being discharged.
The frequency of IV Iron Therapy depends on:
- The severity of your deficiency
- Your body’s response to treatment
- Your provider’s recommendations based on follow-up blood work
Some individuals require only a single infusion, while others with severe iron deficiency anemia may need multiple sessions spaced weeks or months apart. A follow-up blood test in 4 weeks will help determine if additional infusions are necessary.
Most patients notice improvements in symptoms like fatigue, weakness, and dizziness within 24-48 hours. However, full benefits can take a few weeks as your body fully integrates the iron into red blood cell production.
We recommend avoiding strenuous physical activity for 24 hours after your infusion to allow your body to adjust.
To prevent future deficiencies, consider:
- Iron-rich foods: Red meat, spinach, lentils, quinoa, oats, and fortified cereals.
- Iron supplements (if recommended by your provider).
- Addressing underlying conditions that affect iron absorption or cause chronic blood loss.
