IV therapy at home in Madrid
Your IV therapy, without leaving home
The drip your doctor prescribed, administered and monitored on your sofa. And we speak English.
Why on your sofa
The drip on your prescription, with the sofa included
When you’ve been prescribed fluids, the travelling is the part you can spare: getting dressed, crossing Madrid and waiting your turn while feeling weak. We bring the supplies, the line and professional monitoring to your living room — always with your prescription.
- 01
The line, placed on your sofa
Your nurse places the IV line, sets the infusion rate and stays with you from start to finish. You provide the rest; she provides the expertise.
- 02
No journeys on weak legs
Just when the drip is most needed is when crossing Madrid appeals least. You save yourself the journey and the whole waiting room.
- 03
Your regimen, assessed and followed
We review your prescription before confirming and, after the visit, we stay in touch and coordinate with your doctor if needed.
Could you send me your doctor’s prescription so we can assess your case? What it is
What IV therapy at home is
IV therapy at home is the administration of fluids or hydration drips intravenously in your own home, whenever your doctor has prescribed it. A registered nurse places the line, controls the infusion rate and stays with you throughout the administration.
It is not an on-demand service: before the visit we assess your case and your prescription to confirm it is safe to do at home. If your situation calls for a hospital setting, we tell you frankly rather than take risks.
Need another intravenous treatment — an antibiotic or iron, for example? See our page on intravenous treatment at home (in Spanish — or just ask us in English on WhatsApp).

Frequently asked questions
Your questions about IV therapy at home
And for your specific case, a nurse can guide you on the other side of WhatsApp.
What is IV therapy at home?
It is the administration of fluids or hydration drips intravenously in your own home, prescribed by your doctor. A registered nurse places the line, controls the infusion rate and stays with you for the whole visit.
Do I need a prescription?
Yes, always. IV therapy is administered exclusively with a doctor’s prescription and, in many cases, in coordination with your doctor. Provide the report or the regimen and we take care of the administration and the monitoring.
Is IV therapy at home safe?
It is when it’s administered by experienced nurses, with a prescription and for a case suited to the home. That’s why we assess every situation first: if you need a hospital setting or closer monitoring than we can guarantee at home, we tell you frankly instead of taking risks.
How long does a drip take?
It depends on the volume and the infusion rate your regimen indicates; as a guide, between 30 minutes and a couple of hours. We confirm it when we assess your prescription, before the visit.
How much does IV therapy at home cost?
It depends on the treatment, the length of the visit and your area; we give you a fixed price before confirming, with travel and supplies included. The initial WhatsApp consultation, where we assess whether it’s viable at home, is free and carries no obligation.
Is the service discreet?
Yes: our nurses always arrive in plain clothes, with no uniforms and no marked cars. Nobody needs to know you’re receiving healthcare at home.
