First, what a drip isn't
A drip isn't a treatment for COVID. If you test positive, call your own doctor. MedlinePlus notes that some people are offered antiviral medicine, and it's given in the first days of being sick, so don't put that call off.
The everyday basics
None of these need a nurse:
- Rest when you're tired, and keep a regular sleep schedule.
- Drink water through the day.
- Eat a mix of foods: fruits, vegetables, lean protein and whole grains.
- Ease back into activity with walking or stretching, and ask your doctor what's safe before you push harder.
- Lean on family and friends, and talk to a doctor or therapist if it's wearing on you.
What's in our COVID & Flu Recovery drip
Our COVID & Flu Recovery drip is $260. Saline is sterile salt water, and the Vitamin D3 comes as a separate shot during the same visit. Here's everything in it:
- 1 liter of saline
- B-Complex
- Vitamin C
- Zinc
- Magnesium
- Glutathione
- Vitamin D3, given as a shot
When you are sick, the nurse comes to you
A nurse or paramedic comes to your home, office or hotel, so you don't have to drive anywhere while you're sick. Tell us you have COVID or the flu when you call or text (385) 301-6279.
You'll get a short medical form first, and your nurse takes your vitals before anything starts. The needle only places a tiny, flexible tube in your vein, then comes out. Plan on about 45 to 60 minutes.
Long COVID
Some people have symptoms that hang on for weeks or months, like fatigue or brain fog. That's called long COVID, or post-COVID conditions. MedlinePlus says there's no specific treatment for it yet, so it's something to work through with your own doctor. A drip isn't a fix for it.
When to call your doctor, or 911
Call your doctor if your symptoms are getting worse. Call 911 if you have:
- Trouble breathing
- Chest pain or pressure
- Confusion, or trouble waking up
- Blue lips or face
