Question 1

What is IV therapy?

Accepted Answer

IV therapy, also known as intravenous therapy or IV infusion, delivers vitamins, minerals, and nutrients directly into your bloodstream through a small IV catheter. By bypassing the digestive system, IV therapy achieves 100% bioavailability — meaning your body absorbs the full dose immediately. This is significantly more effective than oral supplements, which typically achieve only 20-40% absorption after passing through the stomach and liver.

Question 2

Is IV therapy safe?

Accepted Answer

Yes, IV therapy is safe when administered by qualified medical professionals. At The Longevity Center, all IV therapy sessions are physician-supervised and administered by licensed registered nurses. We use only pharmaceutical-grade ingredients sourced from FDA-registered compounding pharmacies. A brief health intake is completed before every session to ensure IV therapy is appropriate for you.

Question 3

Does IV therapy actually work?

Accepted Answer

Yes, IV therapy works by delivering nutrients directly into your bloodstream at therapeutic concentrations that cannot be achieved through oral supplementation. Because IV infusions bypass digestion, 100% of the nutrients are available for immediate cellular use. Most clients report feeling the effects — increased energy, improved hydration, mental clarity — within hours of their session.

Question 4

How long does an IV drip take?

Accepted Answer

Most vitamin IV drips at The Longevity Center take 45-60 minutes. Hydration therapy takes 30-45 minutes. NAD+ infusions take longer: 1-1.5 hours for 250mg and 2-2.5 hours for 500mg. Quick shots (intramuscular injections) take under 10 minutes. You can relax in our private suites, use your phone, or rest during your infusion.

Question 5

Does IV therapy hurt?

Accepted Answer

Most clients feel only a small pinch during the initial IV catheter insertion — similar to having blood drawn. Once the IV is placed, the infusion itself is painless. Our licensed nurses are highly skilled at IV placement and prioritize your comfort. If you're nervous about needles, let us know and we'll take extra care.

Question 6

How often should I get IV therapy?

Accepted Answer

For general wellness and maintenance, monthly IV therapy sessions are a common protocol. For specific goals like immune support, energy restoration, or recovery, weekly sessions for 4-6 weeks may be recommended. For NAD+ therapy, a loading phase of 3-5 sessions followed by monthly maintenance is typical. Our clinical team will help you create a personalized protocol based on your goals.

Question 7

What should I do before IV therapy?

Accepted Answer

Before your IV therapy session: eat a light meal or snack (don't come on an empty stomach), stay hydrated, wear comfortable clothing with sleeves that can be pushed up easily, and arrive a few minutes early to complete your health intake form. Avoid alcohol for 24 hours before your session for best results.

Question 8

What should I do after IV therapy?

Accepted Answer

After your IV therapy session: continue to stay hydrated, avoid strenuous exercise for 2-4 hours, eat a balanced meal, and monitor how you feel. Most clients feel energized and refreshed. Some experience mild fatigue as their body processes the nutrients — this is normal and typically resolves within a few hours.

Question 9

Are there any side effects of IV therapy?

Accepted Answer

IV therapy is generally well-tolerated. Some clients may experience minor bruising at the injection site, a cool sensation during infusion, mild flushing with certain vitamins (like niacin), or temporary fatigue. These effects are typically mild and short-lived. Serious side effects are rare when IV therapy is administered by qualified professionals using proper protocols.

Question 10

Who should not get IV therapy?

Accepted Answer

IV therapy may not be appropriate for individuals with kidney disease, heart failure, certain blood disorders, or allergies to specific vitamins/minerals. Pregnant women should only receive pregnancy-safe formulations with OB/GYN clearance. Our health intake process screens for contraindications, and our clinical team will advise if IV therapy is not recommended for you.

Question 11

What vitamins are in IV therapy?

Accepted Answer

IV therapy formulations vary by treatment. Common vitamins include: Vitamin C (immune support, collagen production), B-Complex (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6 for energy metabolism), Vitamin B12 (neurological function, energy), Vitamin D (bone health, immune function). Minerals include Magnesium (muscle function, relaxation), Calcium (bones, nerve signaling), and Zinc (immune defense).

Question 12

Can I drive after IV therapy?

Accepted Answer

Yes, most clients can drive immediately after IV therapy. Unlike sedation procedures, IV vitamin therapy does not impair your ability to drive. However, if you receive high-dose NAD+ or feel unusually tired after your session, we recommend waiting 30-60 minutes or having someone drive you home.

Question 30

Is IV therapy more expensive than supplements?

Accepted Answer

While a single IV session costs more than a bottle of supplements, IV therapy delivers 100% bioavailability compared to 20-40% for oral supplements. This means you absorb significantly more of the nutrients. Many clients find the superior absorption and immediate effects worth the investment, especially for specific health goals.

Question 31

What is NAD+ IV therapy?

Accepted Answer

NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide) IV therapy delivers this essential coenzyme directly into your bloodstream. NAD+ is found in every cell of your body and is critical for energy production, DNA repair, cellular communication, and activating longevity pathways. NAD+ levels naturally decline with age, and IV therapy restores optimal levels for improved energy, mental clarity, and anti-aging benefits.

Question 32

What are the benefits of NAD+ therapy?

Accepted Answer

NAD+ IV therapy benefits include: increased energy and reduced fatigue, improved mental clarity and focus, enhanced cellular repair and anti-aging, DNA repair activation, metabolic optimization, mood stabilization and reduced anxiety, neurological support, and faster recovery from illness or exertion. Many clients describe feeling 'years younger' after NAD+ therapy.

Question 33

How much does NAD+ therapy cost in New Jersey?

Accepted Answer

At The Longevity Center in New Jersey, NAD+ Signature IV (250mg) is $350 and takes 1-1.5 hours. NAD+ High-Dose (500mg) is $500 and takes 2-2.5 hours. NAD+ Quick Shot (100mg intramuscular injection) is $149 and takes under 10 minutes. We offer the most competitive NAD+ pricing in NJ for physician-supervised therapy.

Question 34

How is NAD+ IV different from NAD+ supplements?

Accepted Answer

IV NAD+ achieves 100% bioavailability because it enters your bloodstream directly, bypassing digestion entirely. Oral NAD+ precursors like NMN and NR must survive stomach acid, intestinal absorption, and liver metabolism — resulting in only 20-40% bioavailability. IV NAD+ is significantly more potent and produces faster, more pronounced results.

Question 35

How often should I get NAD+ therapy?

Accepted Answer

For optimal results, we recommend a NAD+ loading phase of 3-5 sessions over 2-3 weeks, followed by monthly maintenance infusions. NAD+ Quick Shots can be done 1-3 times per week for ongoing support between full IV drips. Our clinical team will help you design a protocol based on your specific goals.

Question 36

Does NAD+ therapy help with aging?

Accepted Answer

Yes, NAD+ is one of the most studied molecules in longevity science. NAD+ activates sirtuins — proteins that regulate cellular aging and repair. By restoring NAD+ levels, IV therapy supports DNA repair, mitochondrial function, and cellular energy production — all key factors in healthy aging. Many clients use NAD+ as a cornerstone of their anti-aging protocol.

Question 37

Can NAD+ help with addiction recovery?

Accepted Answer

NAD+ has been studied for addiction recovery support. IV NAD+ may help replenish depleted cellular energy reserves, reduce withdrawal-related fatigue, support neurotransmitter synthesis, and promote mood stability. The Longevity Center recommends consulting with your physician to determine if NAD+ is appropriate for your recovery protocol.

Question 38

What does NAD+ feel like during infusion?

Accepted Answer

During NAD+ infusion, some clients experience mild chest tightness, warmth, or nausea — these sensations are normal and typically subside when we slow the drip rate. Many clients feel increased alertness and mental clarity during the infusion. After the session, most report sustained energy, improved mood, and better focus.

Question 39

Is NAD+ IV therapy FDA approved?

Accepted Answer

NAD+ is a naturally occurring coenzyme in your body and is classified as a supplement. IV therapy is a medical procedure regulated by state medical boards. At The Longevity Center, all NAD+ infusions are physician-supervised and use pharmaceutical-grade NAD+ from FDA-registered compounding pharmacies.

Question 40

Who should get NAD+ therapy?

Accepted Answer

NAD+ therapy benefits anyone experiencing low energy, brain fog, signs of aging, or seeking cellular optimization. It's popular among executives, athletes, health-conscious individuals, those recovering from illness, and anyone focused on longevity. A brief health intake determines if NAD+ is appropriate for you.

Question 41

What is Myers' Cocktail?

Question 46

How often should I get Myers' Cocktail?

Accepted Answer

Accepted Answer

Yes, IV therapy using pregnancy-safe ingredients is generally considered safe for expecting mothers when administered by licensed professionals under physician supervision. At The Longevity Center, our Pregnancy Support IV contains only Saline, B-Complex vitamins, Vitamin C, and Magnesium. We recommend OB/GYN or midwife clearance before your first session.

Question 48

Does IV therapy help with morning sickness?

Accepted Answer

Yes, IV therapy is highly effective for morning sickness. Dehydration worsens nausea, and IV saline rapidly restores fluid balance. The Vitamin B6 in our B-Complex is clinically recognized for reducing pregnancy-related nausea and vomiting. Many expecting mothers at The Longevity Center report significant morning sickness relief.

Question 49

Which trimester can I receive IV therapy?

Accepted Answer

Our Pregnancy Support IV is available in all trimesters with OB/GYN clearance. Many clients begin in the first trimester for morning sickness relief and continue throughout pregnancy for ongoing hydration, energy, and nutrient support.

Our Nausea Relief IV with Ondansetron (Zofran) provides fast-acting relief, and our Pregnancy Support IV helps with hydration and nutrient replenishment. Our Medical Director is a double board-certified OB/GYN.

Question 52

Is your medical director qualified for pregnancy IV therapy?

Question 54

What is hydration IV therapy?

Accepted Answer

Hydration IV therapy delivers saline solution (0.9% sodium chloride) and electrolytes directly into your bloodstream for rapid rehydration. It's significantly faster and more effective than drinking water because it bypasses the digestive system. One liter of IV saline rehydrates your body in 30-45 minutes.

Question 55

How much does hydration IV cost?

Accepted Answer

At The Longevity Center, Hydration IV therapy starts at $99 per session and takes 30-45 minutes. This is our most affordable IV option and includes 1 liter of pharmaceutical-grade saline with electrolytes.

Question 56

Does IV therapy help with hangovers?

Accepted Answer

Yes, IV therapy is highly effective for hangover recovery. Alcohol causes severe dehydration and depletes B-vitamins and electrolytes. Our Hydration IV ($99) rapidly rehydrates, and our Myers' Cocktail ($149) adds vitamins for comprehensive hangover relief. Most clients feel significantly better within 30-60 minutes.

Question 57

Can IV therapy help with jet lag?

Accepted Answer

Yes, IV therapy helps combat jet lag by rapidly rehydrating (air travel is dehydrating), replenishing vitamins depleted by stress and travel, and supporting energy production. Our Hydration IV and Myers' Cocktail are popular choices for travelers arriving to or departing from the NJ/NY area.

Question 58

Is IV therapy good for athletes?

Accepted Answer

Yes, IV therapy is popular among athletes for pre-event preparation, post-event recovery, and ongoing performance optimization. Our Recovery & Performance IV ($179) contains amino acids, B-vitamins, and magnesium specifically formulated for athletic recovery. Many athletes also use NAD+ for endurance and recovery.

Question 59

How fast does IV hydration work?

Accepted Answer

IV hydration begins working immediately because fluids enter your bloodstream directly. Most clients notice improved hydration, reduced headache, and better energy within 15-30 minutes of starting the infusion. Full effects are typically felt by the end of the 30-45 minute session.

Question 60

Is IV hydration better than drinking water?

Accepted Answer

For severe dehydration or rapid rehydration needs, yes. IV hydration delivers 100% of fluids and electrolytes directly to your bloodstream, while drinking water requires digestion and absorption (some is lost). IV hydration is ideal for hangovers, illness, athletic recovery, and situations where rapid rehydration is needed.

Question 61

What is the best IV for immune support?

Accepted Answer

For immune support, we recommend the Tri-Immune Boost ($149) which contains Vitamin C, Zinc, and Glutathione — three powerful immune-supporting nutrients. Myers' Cocktail ($149) is also excellent for immune health with its comprehensive vitamin and mineral formula.

Question 62

Does IV therapy help when you're sick?

Accepted Answer

Yes, IV therapy can help when you're sick by rapidly delivering immune-supporting nutrients (Vitamin C, Zinc) and fluids when your body needs them most. Because many illnesses cause dehydration and reduced appetite, IV therapy bypasses the compromised digestive system for immediate nutrient delivery.

Question 63

Can IV therapy prevent getting sick?

Accepted Answer

While no treatment guarantees illness prevention, regular IV therapy can support immune function and overall wellness. Many clients schedule monthly immune-boosting IVs (Tri-Immune, Myers' Cocktail) during cold and flu season as part of their prevention strategy.

Question 64

What is Tri-Immune Boost IV?

Accepted Answer

Tri-Immune Boost is our dedicated immune support IV containing three powerful ingredients: Vitamin C (high-dose ascorbic acid for immune defense), Zinc (essential for immune cell function), and Glutathione (master antioxidant for cellular protection). It's $149 at The Longevity Center.
