An immune support infusion combines fluids with vitamin C, zinc and B vitamins for people who are run down, recovering from a viral illness, or heading into a demanding stretch during Calgary’s long cold and flu season. A physician assesses you first, which matters most if you are actually unwell.
Physician assessed. Honest about what it can do. From $250.
3301 17 Ave SE, Calgary. Open Monday to Saturday. Request an appointment or call (403) 214-2622.
No infusion prevents colds or flu, and we will not tell you otherwise. Vaccination, sleep, nutrition and hand hygiene do that. What an infusion can do is correct dehydration and low nutrient levels that make recovery slower and leave you feeling flattened. It is most useful:
If you have a fever, a productive cough or symptoms lasting more than 10 days, you need a diagnosis rather than a drip. Our walk-in urgent care will assess you the same day.
Vitamin C at labelled doses, zinc, B-complex and B12, and magnesium in normal saline. The physician adjusts the blend from your assessment, and can prescribe antivirals or other treatment where an infection needs it.
1. Physician assessment, including a check that you do not have an infection that needs treating.
2. Infusion the same visit where possible, 45 to 60 minutes.
3. Registered nurse monitoring throughout.
4. Advice on rest, fluids and when to be reassessed.
Recurrent infections sometimes have a medical cause: low iron, diabetes, thyroid, asthma or a medication. The physician looks for it. The assessment is covered by Alberta Health Care.
Flu shots, COVID boosters, antivirals and prescriptions are all available in the same visit if you need them.
We describe what the infusion does and does not do. You will not be sold a package.
Side effects are uncommon: a flush or vitamin taste during the infusion, mild soreness at the IV site, and occasionally a headache. Vitamin C is not given if you have G6PD deficiency, kidney stones or kidney disease, and zinc doses are kept within safe limits because excess zinc lowers copper.
The physician assessment is covered by Alberta Health Care. The infusion itself is a private service from $250, which includes the vitamins and minerals, nursing time and observation. You will be given the exact price before anything is booked.
Some extended health plans reimburse IV therapy with a prescription. Ask reception for a receipt and the prescription copy.
No. Nothing we infuse prevents infection. It can help you recover and feel better when you are depleted. Vaccination is the proven prevention and we offer it.
Usually yes, after the physician checks you. If you have a fever or signs of a bacterial infection, that is treated first.
Occasionally, when you are run down or recovering. If you feel you need them regularly, that is a reason for a proper work-up rather than more infusions.
Most medications are fine. Tell the physician everything you take, including supplements. High-dose vitamin C interacts with some chemotherapy and with certain blood tests.
No. We do not provide elective infusions to anyone under 18. Our pediatric clinic treats childhood illness directly.
Leave your details and the clinic will call you within one business day to book your physician assessment. For urgent concerns call (403) 214-2622.
