About Myers Cocktail IV Therapy
The Myers Cocktail is the original IV vitamin therapy — developed in the 1960s by Baltimore physician Dr. John Myers, who used it for decades to treat patients with chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, asthma, migraines, and other conditions that responded poorly to oral therapy. The formula remains largely unchanged today: B-complex vitamins, B12, vitamin C, calcium, and magnesium, infused over 15 to 30 minutes. It is the most widely used and best-known IV cocktail in the field, and the foundation from which most modern IV therapy protocols evolved.
The Myers Cocktail's enduring popularity comes from its remarkable versatility. The combination of magnesium and B vitamins addresses a wide range of symptoms — fatigue, muscle tension, migraine, asthma, seasonal allergies, and chronic stress. Calcium supports nervous system regulation and muscle function. Vitamin C provides antioxidant and immune support. Together, these nutrients address common deficiencies and provide what many describe as a comprehensive "tune-up."
A small but growing body of clinical research has examined the Myers Cocktail's effects in conditions like fibromyalgia and migraine, with mixed but generally positive results. Most clients receive a Myers as monthly maintenance or as needed during stressful periods. It remains the entry-point IV that most clinics recommend for first-time clients who don't have a specific protocol in mind.
How Myers Cocktail IV Therapy Works
The classic formula is mixed into 250mL to 500mL of sterile saline and infused over 15 to 30 minutes — making it one of the shorter IV sessions available. The combination of B vitamins, vitamin C, calcium, and magnesium enters the bloodstream and is distributed to tissues where these nutrients support energy production, nervous system function, antioxidant defense, and muscle relaxation.

What to Expect
A short 15 to 30 minute session. You may feel a warm sensation in your chest during the magnesium push — this is normal and passes within minutes. Most clients feel a noticeable lift in energy and clarity by the end of the session, with effects building over the following day.
Cost
Standard Myers Cocktails run $150 to $225. Variations with added glutathione, extra B12, or higher-dose vitamin C bring the total to $250 to $300. Often offered as a monthly maintenance series with discounted pricing.
Who it's for
The best candidates are people with confirmed or likely nutrient deficiencies, malabsorption conditions, or who tolerate oral supplements poorly — plus generally healthy people seeking an energy or wellness boost, provided they understand the evidence for benefit in healthy individuals is limited. Anyone with a chronic condition should view it as a complement to, not a replacement for, proper medical care.
Safety & considerations
The Myers' Cocktail is generally well tolerated, but side effects can include a warm flush (especially from magnesium), a metallic or vitamin taste, lightheadedness, and IV-site discomfort. Rapid magnesium infusion can cause a drop in blood pressure, so it is pushed slowly. People with kidney disease, heart conditions, pregnancy, or G6PD deficiency (for the vitamin C) need clinician clearance first.
