Vitamin C, zinc, B-complex, fluids, and electrolytes for the worst days of a cold or flu, delivered to your couch.
When a heavy cold or the flu hits, dragging yourself to a clinic waiting room is the last thing you want to do. The Cold & Flu Drip comes to your couch instead. It pairs vitamins and electrolytes with deep hydration and inflammation-relief support while you ride the illness out.
“I got the Nausea Relief Drip after feeling sick and dehydrated all day, and it helped so much. The Nurse Practitioner was super kind, professional, and made me feel comfortable during the whole appointment. Within the treatment, I started feeling less nauseous and more hydrated. By the time I left, I felt way better and actually had energy again. I love that this is mobile and I could simply have the IV in my room without driving anywhere. Definitely recommend if you need quick relief and hydration!”
It helps with what the flu does to your eating and drinking, not with the virus, which leaves on its own timeline. Fever, a sore throat and nausea mean most people take in far less fluid and food by day three, and that deficit is part of why you feel wiped out. The Cold & Flu Drip at A&M IV Co. in Nashville is $219 and delivers one liter of IV fluid with electrolytes without going through your stomach, adds vitamin C, zinc and vitamin B-complex, and includes Pain Relief, a prescription non-steroidal anti-inflammatory for the body aches, which your Nurse Practitioner reviews against your intake and medication list before it is given and leaves out if it is not a fit; it is not given in pregnancy. It is for someone on day three who is struggling to keep up with fluids but can still keep small sips down, someone with a wedding or a work trip they cannot move, or the parent doing the caretaking while sick. A licensed nurse comes to your couch and the infusion runs about 60 minutes.
Yes. A licensed nurse from A&M IV Co. comes to your home, hotel or rental across the Nashville area, you stay under your blanket, and the Cold & Flu Drip infusion runs about 60 minutes. It is $219 flat and contains IV fluid, electrolytes, vitamin C, zinc, vitamin B-complex and Pain Relief, a prescription non-steroidal anti-inflammatory that your Nurse Practitioner reviews at intake. Travel is included across most of our service area. If your address is farther out, the exact amount is shown before you pay. Nausea relief or glutathione can be requested at checkout for $20 each; nausea relief is a prescription medicine reviewed before it is given. Same-day visits are available when a slot is open; if the calendar shows none, send a request and we text you if a nurse can take it, and if you do not hear back soon, do not wait on us. When the whole household has the same bug, more than one drip can be booked at the same address, each person with their own intake and bag. If the nurse declines the visit on arrival for safety, the drip is not charged and a $50 travel and assessment fee is retained. It is for adults 18 and older; anyone under 18 cannot be treated. Book online at amivco.com or text (615) 592-6529.
On day one with a runny nose and drinking fine, skip it: an IV adds nothing then, and rest and fluids do. The Cold & Flu Drip at A&M IV Co. in Nashville, $219 for IV fluid, electrolytes, vitamin C, zinc, vitamin B-complex and prescription Pain Relief, fits an adult whose eating and drinking have collapsed after days of illness but who can still keep small sips down. We do not test for flu or strep and do not prescribe antivirals or antibiotics on an IV visit; urgent care does. If you are pregnant, over 65, or have lung, heart or kidney disease, see a doctor early, because antiviral treatment only works when started soon. It is for the rehydration and nutrient side of being sick, nothing more. An IV is elective wellness care and not a substitute for emergency care: trouble breathing, chest pain, a stiff neck, confusion, or a high fever that will not come down means seek emergency care first, and if you are on chemotherapy, steroids or medication that suppresses the immune system, any fever needs urgent medical review. A Nurse Practitioner reviews every intake and may decline the visit if your answers point somewhere else.
Ingredient glossary
Tap any component below to read what it does. Your provider confirms fit before treatment.
The base fluid that carries every other ingredient straight into the bloodstream. Typically an isotonic crystalloid like Normal Saline or Lactated Ringer's, matched to your physiology so it absorbs without diluting the body's own chemistry. IV delivery bypasses the stomach entirely, so the fluid is in circulation as the bag runs rather than after the hour or two an oral drink takes to absorb.
A co-factor your body uses to form collagen, and an antioxidant that protects healthy cells, including skin cells, against oxidative damage such as damage from ultraviolet light.
An essential trace mineral the body needs in small amounts. It takes part in many enzyme reactions, including those involved in wound healing.
A group of B vitamins that supports cellular energy production, nervous-system function, and healthy red blood cell formation. It is included in drips booked for fatigue and recovery.
A prescription non-steroidal anti-inflammatory, given for body aches and pain. It is not right for everyone, including anyone taking blood thinners. Your Nurse Practitioner reviews it with you before it is given.
Informational note: treatments are described in general wellness terms. Final eligibility and fit should always be confirmed by the medical provider.
