Care starts with assessment
Understand what your body needs.
Feeling depleted can have many explanations. Recent illness, reduced fluid intake, medications, nutrition and an underlying condition may all deserve consideration. The first step is understanding the cause and deciding what level of care is appropriate.
Dr. Ingulsrud’s Beverly Hills practice offers evaluation for IV hydration and vitamin injections. The clinical discussion covers symptoms, relevant history, current medications and reasonable alternatives. Oral hydration or oral supplementation may be the better choice; when an injection or infusion is appropriate, the plan is selected and supervised as medical care.
Individualized care
A considered plan, from assessment to follow-up.
The practice’s offering centers on basic IV fluids and vitamin injections. Specific treatments, ingredients and availability are confirmed with the office.
Symptom review
Discuss what changed, how long you have felt unwell, recent illness and your ability to eat and drink.
Hydration assessment
Review fluid intake and losses, medications and clinical findings before deciding on an appropriate treatment route.
Vitamin-related questions
Consider diet, absorption concerns, symptoms and relevant tests when a vitamin deficiency is suspected.
Medical suitability
Review allergies and conditions affecting fluid balance, including heart or kidney disease, before recommending an infusion.
Clear treatment details
Understand the proposed ingredients, reason for treatment, expected course, alternatives and potential risks.
Follow-through
Discuss what to watch for afterward and whether persistent symptoms need further evaluation or a different setting of care.
A considered approach
The right treatment begins with the right reason.
An IV is a route of treatment, not a general measure of better care. Many people can replace fluids by drinking, and vitamin treatment should address a relevant clinical need. Infusions and injections carry risks, including infection, reactions and problems related to fluid or ingredient dosing. The decision should be individualized.

Common questions
IV Hydration & Vitamin Injections, explained clearly.
Is IV hydration always better than drinking fluids?
No. Oral fluids are often appropriate. A clinician considers the severity and cause of fluid loss, your ability to drink and your health history before recommending a route of treatment.
Which vitamin injections are available?
The office will confirm current options and whether a particular treatment is appropriate. A vitamin injection should be tied to an individualized medical assessment rather than selected from a generic wellness menu.
Can vitamin injections improve energy?
Treating a relevant deficiency may help related symptoms, but injections are not a guaranteed energy boost. Persistent fatigue can have many causes and may require a broader evaluation.
Who needs extra caution with IV fluids?
People with conditions affecting fluid balance, including heart or kidney disease, may face additional risks. Tell the clinician about your diagnoses, medications, allergies and previous reactions before treatment.
Can I book an infusion without an evaluation?
The practice first confirms the medical reason and suitability. An appointment request does not guarantee an infusion or injection, and the office will explain the expected evaluation and cost.
What if I have severe dehydration or feel seriously unwell?
Severe symptoms may require emergency care. Call 911 for confusion, fainting, severe breathing difficulty or another emergency. Do not wait for an online appointment request to be reviewed.
