People with the following conditions or allergies should not book IV drip therapy:

Please note this is not an exhaustive list, please check with a medical professional before booking.

Kidney or liver disease: Individuals with impaired kidney or liver function may not be able to process the high doses of vitamins and minerals used in vitamin drip therapy, leading to further health complications.

Allergies or sensitivities: Patients with a history of allergic reactions or sensitivities to any of the ingredients used in the vitamin drip may experience an adverse reaction.

Cardiovascular disease: Patients with a history of heart disease or high blood pressure should avoid vitamin drip therapy as the high doses of certain vitamins and excess fluid may lead to cardiovascular complications.

Blood and metabolic disorders: Individuals with certain blood disorders such as hemochromatosis, thalassemia, sickle cell anaemia or G6PD Deficiency may be at risk of further complications if given high doses of vitamins or products.

Pregnancy: There is not enough evidence to support the safety of vitamin drip therapy during pregnancy, and it is not offered to pregnant women by Get A Drip.

Diabetes: Some Vitamin Drip therapy may contain higher levels of sugar, which can affect the blood glucose levels of some individuals with diabetes.

If you are taking any of the following medications IV Drip therapy may not be suitable for you:

This list is not exhaustive, please check with a qualified medical professional before booking.

Blood thinners: Medications such as warfarin, heparin, and aspirin can increase the risk of bleeding during or after IV therapy.

Antibiotics: Some antibiotics, such as tetracyclines and fluoroquinolones, can bind to minerals like calcium and magnesium, reducing their absorption and effectiveness during IV therapy.

Chemotherapy drugs: Chemotherapy drugs can cause dehydration, and IV therapy may be used to help replenish fluids and nutrients. However, certain chemotherapy drugs may interact with IV therapy and require careful monitoring.

Corticosteroids: Corticosteroids, such as prednisone, can increase the risk of fluid retention and electrolyte imbalances during IV therapy.

Diuretics: Diuretics can increase the risk of dehydration and electrolyte imbalances during IV therapy.

Antihypertensive medications: Some medications used to treat high blood pressure, such as beta-blockers and ACE inhibitors, can cause electrolyte imbalances and other complications during IV therapy.

Anti-diabetic medications: Some antidiabetic medications, such as insulin, may need to be adjusted during IV therapy to prevent hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).

It's important to consult with a qualified healthcare provider before considering vitamin drip therapy to determine if it is safe and appropriate for you. Get A Drip reserves the right to withhold treatment if they feel it would create complications or concerns.

If your treatment can’t go ahead due to medical reasons discovered at your appointment, we’ll refund the treatment cost but not the callout fee

To avoid this happening, your nurse will call you ahead of your booking to run through your medical history and any medications you’re taking. 

You can also message your nurse directly via the Urban app after you’ve booked to discuss. 

As long as it’s more than 24hrs before your appointment, your nurse can refund the full cost of the treatment and booking fee so it’s definitely a good idea to consult with them ahead of your booking.

If your nurse can’t find the vein, we’ll refund you fully
In the unlikely scenario they can’t find a vein to administer your treatment, we’ll refund the full cost of treatment and callout fee.

If your nurse thinks a different treatment would be better suited to you at the time of your appointment, they can change your booking there and then. If the new cost is different to your original booking, they’ll let you know so you can confirm you’re happy to go ahead. 

Please note that if you originally paid using Apple Pay, you’ll need to add another payment method to allow your nurse to amend your booking (not ideal, we know - we’re working on a fix!).

Yes! You can add on additional services to your booking or consultation if your nurse thinks they are suitable after reviewing your medical form.

Here's how much they cost when booked as add-ons*:
