IV Therapy Benefits: What's Actually in a Drip?
June 12, 2026 · By Paige Erickson, DNP, FNP-C

IV therapy delivers fluids, vitamins, and nutrients directly into your bloodstream, so your body can use them quickly without waiting on digestion. At Ren Aesthetics & Wellness in Ogden, UT, drips are tailored to what you're after — hydration, energy, recovery, or immune support.
Common reasons people get a drip
- Rehydration and a quick energy reset
- Recovery after travel, illness, or a hard week
- Immune support during cold and flu season
- Targeted vitamins like B12, vitamin C, and glutathione
- NAD+ for cellular energy and wellness
What's typically in a drip
Depending on the blend, an IV may include saline for hydration, electrolytes, B vitamins, vitamin C, amino acids, antioxidants like glutathione, and add-ons for specific goals. You can choose a signature blend or build your own with your provider.
What to expect
A session is relaxed and usually takes around 30–60 minutes. A provider reviews your goals and health history first to recommend the right drip and confirm it's appropriate for you.
