How much does IV therapy cost in Toronto?

A standard IV vitamin drip in Toronto runs CA$119 to CA$399 with a median around CA$175, based on 9 clinics' published menus in TheDripMap's IV Price Index. Specialty drips run higher: NAD+ reaches CA$799 and beauty drips around CA$470.

Why does the same drip cost different amounts at different clinics?

Ingredient quality, dosing, medical oversight level, location overhead, and what add-ons are included can account for CA$100+ price differences on similar-sounding drips. Compare ingredient lists, not just menu names.

Does OHIP or my provincial health plan cover IV therapy?

No provincial plan covers elective wellness IV therapy; hydration, energy and beauty drips are out of pocket. Medically necessary IV treatment ordered by a physician is a separate category handled through the regular health system.

Can I claim IV therapy through extended health benefits in Canada?

Sometimes. If the IV is administered by a practitioner your plan recognizes, most commonly a naturopathic doctor, extended-health or Health Spending Account coverage may apply up to your paramedical limits. Check your specific plan wording first.

Are package deals worth it?

If you plan to do IV therapy regularly, monthly or more often, packages typically save 10 to 20 percent. For occasional users, single sessions are more flexible.

What is the cheapest way to try IV therapy?

Check the price range for your city first, then compare a basic hydration or standard vitamin drip across 2 or 3 nearby clinics. In our data the low end for a standard drip is CA$75 to CA$119 in major Canadian cities, and first-visit promotions are common.

How Much Does IV Therapy Cost in Canada? Real 2026 Prices

By TheDripMap Editorial TeamUpdated July 5, 2026How we verify clinics

A standard IV vitamin drip in Canada costs a median of about CA$175, but the spread is wide: the same drip is priced anywhere from CA$75 to CA$399 depending on the clinic. Those numbers come from TheDripMap's IV Price Index, built from Canadian clinics' own published menus, not estimates. This guide breaks down what you should actually expect to pay by city and treatment, what drives the differences, and how insurance works in Canada.

What Canadians pay right now, by city

These figures are aggregated from clinics' own published menus in our IV Price Index (updated 2026). Each range covers only treatments where at least 3 clinics in that city post a price, so no single clinic's pricing skews the number.

•Toronto, standard IV vitamin drip: CA$119 to CA$399, median CA$175 (9 clinics)
•Calgary, standard IV vitamin drip: CA$75 to CA$260, median CA$200 (3 clinics)
•Edmonton, standard IV vitamin drip: CA$75 to CA$295, median CA$150 (7 clinics)
•Toronto, NAD+: CA$79 to CA$799, median CA$250 (5 clinics)
•Toronto, Myers' Cocktail: CA$106 to CA$300, median CA$250 (4 clinics)
•Toronto, glutathione: CA$60 to CA$389, median CA$189 (10 clinics)
•Toronto, beauty / glow drips: CA$349 to CA$470, median CA$464 (3 clinics)
•Edmonton, hydration: CA$125 to CA$175, median CA$160 (4 clinics)

Why the spread matters

Almost no Canadian clinic posts prices prominently, so most patients book blind. The same standard drip can cost three times more a few blocks away. Checking the city price range before you book is the single easiest way to avoid overpaying. The full breakdown by city and treatment lives at thedripmap.com/iv-prices.

Typical price ranges by treatment across Canada

Most clinics structure their menu around 5 to 10 named drips. Pricing tracks the cost of the active ingredients and the duration of the infusion. Here is the rough range you should expect across the major treatment categories, in Canadian dollars.

•Basic hydration (saline only): CA$85 to CA$250
•Myers' Cocktail (B-complex, B12, C, calcium, magnesium): CA$106 to CA$300
•Hangover recovery (fluids + B vitamins + anti-nausea): CA$150 to CA$350
•Immune support (high-dose C + zinc + glutathione): CA$65 to CA$250
•Energy / B12 boost: CA$125 to CA$319
•Beauty / glow (glutathione + biotin + C): CA$200 to CA$470
•Recovery / athletic (BCAAs + magnesium + antioxidants): CA$125 to CA$400
•NAD+ (dose-dependent, often priced per session): CA$79 to CA$799+

What drives the price differences

Three things explain most of the variation between clinics: the cost of the ingredients (NAD+ alone is dramatically more expensive than B vitamins), the time the infusion takes (slow drips occupy a chair for hours and tie up nursing staff), and the operating cost of the clinic itself (downtown Toronto rent versus a suburban Alberta strip mall drives very different overhead).

A menu that lists CA$99 hangover IVs is either a loss-leader to get you in the door or skimping on ingredients. A menu that charges CA$400 for the same is not necessarily a rip-off; it may include better sourcing, more medical oversight, or premium add-ons baked in. Read the ingredient list, not just the price.

In-clinic vs mobile pricing

Mobile IV therapy (in-home or hotel-room) typically adds a CA$50 to CA$100 service premium over the equivalent in-clinic drip. You are paying for the nurse's travel time, the convenience of not leaving home, and the privacy. For occasional use the premium is often worth it; for regular users it adds up fast.

Some mobile services also charge a flat minimum, for example CA$250 for any mobile visit, which can make smaller drips disproportionately expensive. Always confirm the total before booking.

Add-ons and packages

Most clinics offer optional add-ons that can quickly inflate the total: extra glutathione, vitamin C boosts, B12 pushes, anti-nausea medication, and so on. Each typically runs CA$25 to CA$75. They can be worth it for specific situations but are also commonly soft-sold during your visit.

If you are a regular user, ask about packages. Most clinics offer multi-session bundles at a 10 to 20 percent discount over single sessions, and monthly memberships are increasingly common. Our memberships guide covers when those actually save money.

Is IV therapy covered in Canada?

Provincial health plans (OHIP, AHCIP, MSP and the rest) do not cover elective wellness IV therapy. Drips for hydration, energy, beauty or general wellness are considered elective, so you pay out of pocket. Medically necessary IV treatment ordered by a physician in a hospital or clinic setting, such as IV iron for diagnosed deficiency, is a different category and is typically covered through the provincial system.

Some workplace extended-health plans and Health Spending Accounts (HSAs) can reimburse IV therapy when it is administered by an eligible practitioner, most commonly a naturopathic doctor, up to your plan's paramedical limits. Whether a treatment qualifies depends on your specific plan wording, so check with your insurer before assuming reimbursement.
