Immunity Boost IV Infusion
The whole household has gone down with something, and you cannot afford to be next. An immunity boost infusion delivers vitamin C, zinc, magnesium and hydrating fluid to support your immune function, scripted around your needs, here on the Sunshine Coast, and also available at our rural locations.
What Is an Immunity Boost Infusion
An immunity boost infusion delivers a blend of immune-supporting nutrients and hydrating fluid directly into the bloodstream. Because it bypasses digestion, the nutrients go straight into the bloodstream, so your gut’s ability to absorb them isn’t a factor.
At IV Health Sunshine Coast, the immunity boost infusion starts from $260* (prices subject to change without notice) and combines hydrating fluid with vitamin C, zinc and magnesium. Popular additions include NAC, selenium, B complex and other antioxidants. The infusion is tailored to both your hydration status and nutrient needs after clinical review, not chosen from a menu.
What an Immunity Boost Infusion May Support
Vitamin C, zinc and magnesium have well-described roles in normal immune function, and are commonly sought by people wanting to support their immune system, particularly through winter or during periods of high demand. An infusion is one way to top up both hydration and these nutrients in a single session.
Individual responses vary, and this infusion is a nutritional support, it is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any illness, including colds or the flu. If you’re unwell or managing a health condition, speak with your healthcare provider first. Your nurse will talk you through what’s reasonable to expect so you are fully informed of the process before proceeding.
Screening and Consultation Before Your Infusion
Before any infusion, a registered nurse reviews your health history, medications and goals, and checks whether the ingredients and doses are suitable for you. Some alterations may need to be made depending upon your clinical presentation on the day.
Let your clinician know about any changes in your medical conditions, allergies or medications you take. This helps your practitioner tailor the formulation safely and advise whether an immunity boost infusion suits your circumstances.
How to Book an Iron Infusion
Step 1: Nurse Consultation
A registered nurse reviews your health history, medications and goals, and identifies any screening you may need. A complimentary discovery call with a nurse via telehealth to determine if this is a good fit for you is available.
Step 2: Practitioner Consultation and Clinical Scripting
An integrative medical practitioner confirms clinical appropriateness, tailors your formulation and issues a personalised nutrient prescription valid for 12 months. No referral is required to begin.
Step 3: Your Infusion
An integrative medical practitioner confirms iron deficiency and clinical suitability, selects the preparation and issues a personalised prescription. No referral is required to begin.
Step 4: Follow Up and Review
Follow up sessions are arranged as needed, with periodic review. Fixed schedules are deliberately avoided, since needs and responses differ between individuals.
Safety and Transparency
Informed consent and clear fees are provided before treatment is administered. Infection-control procedures, single-use consumables and continuous monitoring are standard for every session.
All procedures carry some risk. Common infusion risks include discomfort, bruising or swelling at the cannula site, and light-headedness. Some nutrients are not suitable for everyone, for example if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have kidney, heart or certain other health conditions, so it’s important to tell your nurse about any changes to your medical history or medications you’re taking.
Your nurse will discuss the risks relevant to you, answer your questions, and provide aftercare advice. Suitability is assessed individually, and treatment proceeds only where it is clinically appropriate.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an immunity boost infusion?
It is an intravenous infusion that delivers immune-supporting nutrients and hydrating fluid straight into the bloodstream, so they do not rely on digestion to be absorbed. At IV Health Sunshine Coast it starts from $260 and includes vitamin C, zinc and magnesium, with optional additions such as NAC, selenium and B complex. The formulation is tailored to your hydration status and nutrient needs after a clinical review, and administered by a registered nurse in a monitored setting.
What is in an immunity boost infusion?
The base blend combines hydrating fluid with vitamin C, zinc and magnesium. Popular additions include NAC, selenium, B complex and other antioxidants, and compression boots can be added during your session. Rather than working from a fixed recipe, your practitioner confirms which ingredients and doses are appropriate for you during consultation, and tailors the infusion to your hydration status and nutrient needs. Add-ons are priced separately and explained before you book.
How much does an immunity boost infusion cost?
Pricing starts from $260, and the final figure depends on the additions included in your tailored infusion. Extras such as NAC, selenium, B complex or compression boots sit outside the base price. Clear fees are provided before you book, and informed consent is obtained before treatment is administered. We also ask that you let us know your budget for the visit, so we can work within it. Because the infusion is tailored to your needs, calling 07 5406 0689 is the best way to get an accurate price for what you are considering.
Can an immunity boost infusion stop me getting sick?
No. An immunity boost infusion is a nutritional support, not a vaccine or a treatment, and it is not offered to prevent illness or stop you catching colds or the flu. Vitamin C, zinc and magnesium have recognised roles in normal immune function, which is why people choose to top them up, but individual responses vary and evidence does not support infusions preventing infection. What an immunity infusion does do is support your immune system so that you are more resilient during seasons where illness is more prevalent. For protection against specific illnesses, speak with your healthcare provider about appropriate options.
How long does an immunity boost infusion take?
The infusion itself usually takes around 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the volume of fluid and the additions included. Your first visit also includes a nurse consultation and scripting, so allow extra time on the day. Once your script is in place, follow up sessions are quicker. Your clinician will confirm the expected timing when you book so you can plan your visit around it.
Do I need a consultation before an immunity infusion?
Yes. Intravenous nutrients are prescribed rather than chosen from a menu, so every new patient completes a nurse consultation covering health history, medications and any allergies. An integrative medical practitioner then confirms clinical appropriateness and scripts your infusion. No referral is required to begin, and a complimentary 15-minute telehealth consult with a nurse is available to talk through your goals before you commit to anything.
How often can I have an immunity boost infusion?
Frequency is individual and decided with your practitioner rather than set by a fixed schedule. If your immune system is very low, you may need an infusion every week for 2 to 3 weeks to optimise support. Some people choose an infusion during winter or a demanding period, while others space sessions more widely. Your nutrient script remains valid for 12 months, and your plan is reviewed periodically. Fixed schedules are deliberately avoided, since needs and responses differ between individuals and depend on your broader health and nutrition.
Can I have an immunity infusion if I am already unwell?
It depends on how you are feeling. Hydration and nutrient support can still be appropriate in some situations, so it is best to call the clinic and speak with one of the nurses. We do have a private room that can be used if required and available. If you are significantly unwell, see your healthcare provider, as an infusion is not a substitute for medical care.
Is an immunity boost infusion available as a mobile visit?
Selected infusions may be available through mobile visits where it is clinically appropriate and safe. Availability outside the clinic is assessed case by case, since scripting and monitoring still apply. Clinic appointments are available at Sippy Downs. Mobile visits can be convenient when you would rather not travel, and the team will let you know what your location allows. Contact the team on 07 5406 0689 to confirm what is possible before making arrangements.
How should I prepare for an immunity boost infusion?
Arrive well hydrated and having eaten a light meal beforehand, as this helps the session go smoothly. Bring a current list of your medications, supplements and any allergies to your consultation. Afterwards, keep drinking water, eat nutrient-dense meals and rest if you need to. There is usually no downtime, but allow a little time rather than rushing straight off. Your nurse will provide aftercare guidance specific to your infusion.
