Yes — when performed by qualified healthcare professionals. At Aurevia, every patient undergoes a clinical assessment before treatment. All drips use pharmaceutical-grade ingredients in sterile preparation. Treatments are administered by our trained clinical team within formulations developed and overseen by our supervising physician.

Who will administer my IV drip treatment?

Your treatment may be administered by a registered nurse or another qualified healthcare practitioner. All formulations have been developed and approved by our supervising physician, who maintains clinical oversight of every treatment protocol.

How long does an IV drip take?

Sessions range from 30 minutes (Hydration Boost) to 4 hours (NAD+ Longevity). Most popular drips take 45–90 minutes.

Why is IV therapy better than oral supplements?

IV delivery achieves 100% bioavailability — every nutrient reaches your bloodstream directly, bypassing the digestive system. IV Vitamin C achieves plasma concentrations up to 70 times higher than the maximum achievable orally. Nutrients like Glutathione and NAD+ are largely destroyed before absorption when taken orally.

Enzyme / Coenzyme

NAD+ (Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide)

The master coenzyme of cellular energy and DNA repair — declines with age, restored with IV NAD+ for longevity and neurological renewal.

What It Is

NAD+ is a coenzyme found in every living cell and central to cellular respiration (energy production via the Krebs cycle and electron transport chain), DNA repair, and sirtuin activation — proteins directly linked to longevity pathways and metabolic regulation. NAD+ levels decline by approximately 50% between young adulthood and midlife, correlating with fatigue, cognitive decline, and accelerated ageing. IV NAD+ is administered slowly at 125mg/hr to minimise common side effects (nausea, chest pressure, light-headedness). Aurevia offers three dose options: 250mg for sirtuin activation, 500mg for mood and neuroregeneration, and 1,000mg for brain renovation and addiction recovery support.

What It Does

Restores mitochondrial cellular energy production (ATP)
Activates DNA repair enzymes and reduces genomic instability
Activates longevity-linked sirtuin proteins (SIRT1–SIRT7)
Supports brain health, mental clarity, and neurological regeneration
The 1,000mg protocol supports addiction recovery and brain renovation

Clinical Considerations

Transient side effects during infusion — nausea, chest tightness, flushing, and light-headedness — are common and managed by slowing the infusion rate (administered at 125mg/hr maximum). A thorough medical assessment is required before NAD+ therapy. Contraindicated in active cancer treatment without oncologist approval.
