The 5 IV Therapy Protocols Men Ask About Most and What Each One Does

From Myers Cocktail to NAD+, here is what the most requested IV therapy protocols at Georgia Men's Health Clinic/North Georgia IV and Wellness actually deliver.

IV therapy covers a wide range of protocols and the marketing around them is not always clear about what is actually in the bag or why it matters for your specific situation. Here is a straightforward breakdown of the five protocols men ask about most.

Myers Cocktail is the foundational protocol for most IV clinics, combining magnesium, B vitamins, vitamin C, and calcium. Originally developed for chronic fatigue and immune support, in our patient population it is most commonly used for energy and general wellness maintenance.

High-Dose Vitamin C delivers concentrations impossible to achieve orally without gastrointestinal side effects. At therapeutic doses, vitamin C has been studied for immune modulation. It is not appropriate for all patients. G6PD deficiency and kidney disease are contraindications we screen for.

NAD+ is a coenzyme involved in cellular energy production and DNA repair. NAD+ levels decline with age and IV delivery achieves concentrations oral supplementation cannot. Men use it for energy, cognitive clarity, and metabolic support.

Glutathione is the body's master antioxidant, often depleted by oxidative stress or aging. IV glutathione is used for detoxification support and antioxidant repletion.

Custom Hydration and Electrolyte blends are formulated for athletic recovery or illness recovery. The specific electrolyte balance matters, which is why expert medical oversight affects even this most basic category.
