Methodology

Source. Prices were extracted from the public service menus of 1,442 IV therapy clinics cataloged in the IV Therapy Directory database. Clinic websites were crawled and structured pricing fields were extracted with LLM assistance, then validated against the original page source.

Aggregation. For each clinic we captured the lowest and highest advertised session price. We then averaged those values across every clinic in a given metro to produce a city-level avg low and avg high. The national averages on this page are the mean of the city-level figures (each metro weighted equally, not by clinic count), so a single high-volume city does not dominate the national number.

Exclusions. Metros with fewer than 3 priced clinics are excluded to avoid sample-size noise. Zero-dollar prices (often free consultations mislabeled as sessions) are filtered out. Hospital and emergency room pricing is not included — this dataset reflects elective IV therapy clinics only.

What's in a "session". IV therapy menus typically range from a basic hydration drip at the low end to a NAD+ or high-dose vitamin C infusion at the high end. The avg low / avg high figures capture that full range — so a city's "avg high" of $400 means a typical clinic there tops out around $400 for its priciest menu item, not that every session costs $400.

Frequently Asked Questions

How were these IV therapy prices calculated?

We aggregated advertised session pricing from 1,442 IV therapy clinics across 57 US metro areas, extracted directly from clinic websites. For each city we computed the average lowest advertised session price and the average highest advertised session price. Only cities with at least 3 priced clinics are included to avoid small-sample distortion.

What does the "low" and "high" price represent?

The low price is the cheapest session a clinic typically advertises (often a basic hydration or electrolyte drip). The high price is the most expensive session advertised on the same clinic's menu, which usually includes NAD+, high-dose vitamin C, or specialty athletic recovery drips.

Why is Boise the most expensive metro for IV therapy?

Boise's pricing is skewed upward by a concentration of clinics offering high-dose NAD+ infusions, which can run $500–$1,500 per session. When a metro has a larger share of clinics advertising specialty treatments like NAD+, the average ceiling price rises even if basic drips cost the same as elsewhere.

Does insurance cover IV therapy?

Most elective IV therapy (hydration, hangover, vitamin drips, NAD+, beauty drips) is not covered by insurance because it is not considered medically necessary. Medically prescribed iron infusions, chemotherapy support, and hospital-administered fluids are typically covered. See our full cost guide for details.
