IV therapy: what to know before your first visit
IV therapy at BEHAP is a consultation-based wellness service where selected fluids, vitamins, minerals, or nutrients are administered intravenously under clinic protocols.
Programs may be considered for hydration support, travel or fatigue recovery support, skin-wellness support, or general wellness goals after assessment. Formula choice, frequency, and suitability vary by individual and should be reviewed by the clinic team before treatment.
Located in the Asoke – Sukhumvit area, BEHAP provides a calm clinical setting for clients who want personalized, safety-first care. IV therapy is not a substitute for medical diagnosis or treatment, and clients with medical conditions, pregnancy, chronic illness, or current medications should inform the clinic before booking.

FAQ about IV therapy
IV administration delivers vitamins and other selected ingredients into a vein, while oral vitamins must be absorbed through the intestines.
Blood levels of certain vitamins differ depending on the route. Suitability depends on the ingredients, amounts and your health.
Start by telling the team what interests you, such as skin care, learning about the vitamins in a formula or trying NAD+. They will explain the relevant programmes and assess you before treatment.
The best IV formula for you will depend on your individual needs and goals, as well as your medical history and current health status.

During your initial consultation, you will meet with one of our healthcare professionals who will review your medical history, discuss your wellness goals, and recommend a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
Tell the team about medical conditions, especially heart or kidney conditions, pregnancy, allergies, and the medicines and supplements you take. Photos of the labels are helpful. Severe dehydration, electrolyte imbalances, a history of blood clots or infections also need medical assessment. This information helps the team assess whether a formula and amount are appropriate before treatment.
Frequency depends on the formula, your reason for treatment and your health. The team will consider whether another session is needed after your visit, so you do not need to decide on a number of sessions yourself at the outset.
Yes, there are a few things you should do to prepare yourself for an IV drip:
- Drink plenty of water before your appointment to ensure you are well-hydrated.

- Duration varies with the formula, volume and infusion rate, as well as the assessment beforehand. Ask the team how much time to allow before booking.
