Intramuscular & Subcutaneous Shots

IV League Drips is now offering a course of intramuscular and subcutaneous injections that can be tailored to your specific health needs. Administered by our registered nurses, these new treatments are designed to support your health, wellbeing and recovery — or stay in peak form for longer.

What are intramuscular and subcutaneous injections?

There are two main types of injections: intramuscular (IM) and subcutaneous (SC). Both have unique advantages, so it's important to choose the method that’s best for you.

Intramuscular injections are administered into the muscles. The most common injection areas are the gluteus, thigh, and deltoid muscles. This method is easy, accessible, and efficient — the nutrient shot is quickly absorbed by your body.

Subcutaneous injections are administered in the fatty tissue between the skin and muscle. The most common injection areas are the stomach area near the belly button, the front of the thigh, and the side or back of the upper arm. This method is often more comfortable than intramuscular injections, but absorption tends to be slower.

Our highly-trained medical staff consider a variety of factors to help you decide between the two methods, including your health plan and personal preferences.

A customised treatment that is tailored to you

At IV League, our intramuscular and subcutaneous injections deliver a mix of vitamins and nutrients that are tailored to your individual needs. We pinpoint key deficiencies during our initial consultation process, and offer an optional micronutrient testing service for clients who want to take a more in-depth approach. Using this information, we work with you to develop a structured treatment plan that caters to your goals and health requirements. Drawing from years of medical experience and the latest advances in nutritional science, our team will create a plan that's yours and yours alone.

Choosing between IV drips and injections

Intramuscular or subcutaneous injections and IV drips are effective ways to deliver vitamins, minerals and amino acids to the body. However, intramuscular and subcutaneous injections have one main advantage over IV infusions — they are much quicker to administer. Typically, an intramuscular injection takes 15 minutes or less to complete, while an IV infusion can take an hour or more.

FAQs

Where we administer the shot depends on your personal preference and the type of injection you choose. For subcutaneous injections, the abdomen, buttocks, thigh and arm are the most common administration sites. Our recommendation for intramuscular injections is in the thigh, gluteal or deltoid muscles.
