Migraine IV therapy at home
Keep the lights off.
Bright lights, traffic and waiting rooms are the last things you need. A registered nurse comes to you, so you can stay in a dark, quiet room.
$32945–60 minutes · travel includedThe Migraine IV is a liter of fluids with magnesium and B-complex. A licensed provider may also order anti-nausea medicine, such as ondansetron, and anti-inflammatory medicine, such as ketorolac. It costs $329, travel included. A registered nurse comes to your Los Angeles home, hotel or office, and the visit takes about 45 to 60 minutes. It is for people with known migraines, not for a sudden, severe new headache.
What’s in the Migraine drip
Your provider sets the final formula for you. A typical Migraine bag includes:
IV fluids
Nausea during an attack can keep you from drinking, and a liter of fluid can help you rehydrate.
Magnesium
Magnesium is a mineral that supports nerve and muscle function, and it is a standard part of migraine drips.
B-complex
This group of B vitamins, which includes riboflavin (B2), helps your cells make energy.
Anti-nausea medicine
A medicine such as ondansetron may be given for an upset stomach, only on a provider’s order.
Anti-inflammatory medicine
A medicine such as ketorolac may be given for head pain, only on a provider’s order, and the provider sets the final formula.

Why people choose a migraine IV at home
If you get migraines, you know the drill. Light hurts. Sound hurts. The thought of a car ride is too much. Pills may be hard to keep down if your stomach is upset. A home visit takes the trip out of it. You stay where you are, and the nurse works around you quietly.
The drip pairs fluids with magnesium and B vitamins. When the provider orders it, the nurse can also give medicine for nausea or pain through the same line, so nothing has to be swallowed. We cannot promise it will stop an attack, since migraines differ so much from person to person. It is one more option to talk over with your own doctor.
What your nurse does during the visit
When you book, tell us it is a migraine visit so the nurse knows to keep things calm. They will knock softly, speak quietly and use as little light as they safely can. First they ask a few questions about this headache and check your blood pressure and pulse. Then they place the IV and start the bag.
Magnesium can bring a brief warm feeling, so it is given slowly. You can lie down with your eyes closed the whole time. The nurse sits nearby and checks on you without a lot of talk. Afterward they remove the IV, put on a bandage and let themselves out if you like. Plan to rest for the remainder of the day if you can.
Headaches that need the ER, not a drip
This service is for adults who have had migraines before and know what theirs feel like. Some headaches are warning signs. Call 911 for the worst headache of your life, a headache that hits like a thunderclap, or one that comes with weakness, numbness, trouble speaking, vision loss, a seizure, or fever with a stiff neck.
The same goes for a headache after a hit to the head. Before ordering medicine, the provider asks about kidney disease, stomach ulcers, blood thinners and heart conditions, because anti-inflammatory medicine is not safe for everyone. Tell them about very high blood pressure too. If you are pregnant, your OB has to approve the visit first. The provider may adjust the drip or say no.
What is in a migraine IV?
Ours has a liter of fluids, magnesium and B-complex. A provider may add anti-nausea medicine, such as ondansetron, and anti-inflammatory medicine, such as ketorolac, after reviewing your health form. The final formula is set by the provider, and the bag is prepared by a licensed pharmacy.
Can I book during a migraine attack?
Yes. Many clients book once they feel an attack building. It helps a lot to set up your account and finish your provider video call on a good day. Then, when a migraine starts, you only need to pick a time and the nurse can come without extra steps.
Is the migraine IV the same as an ER migraine cocktail?
No. An emergency room can run tests and give a wider range of prescription drugs. Our drip is simpler: fluids, magnesium, B vitamins and, on a provider’s order, medicine for nausea or pain. It is a wellness service at home, not emergency care.
Do I need a migraine diagnosis to book?
You do not need paperwork, but the provider will ask about your headache history. This drip is meant for people who already know their migraine pattern. If your headaches are new, changing or getting worse, see your doctor first so the cause can be checked.
How should I set up the room for a migraine visit?
Pick a spot where you can lie back, like a bed or a sofa. Leave one small lamp or a hallway light on so the nurse can see your arm. Unlock the door or tell us how to get in. Put pets in another room and silence your phone.
