Our IV Recommendation for Cold and Flu:
Myers’ Cocktail
When you're knocked out by a cold or flu, the last thing you want to do is drag yourself to a clinic. Rocky Mountain IV Medics brings the treatment to you — the same hydration, vitamins, and immune support you'd get in the ER, delivered right to your couch.
Our IV therapy for cold and flu relief:
- Rehydrates your body fast — bypassing your stomach for immediate absorption
- Replenishes key vitamins and minerals lost through fever, sweating, and vomiting
- Supports your immune system so your body can do what it's built to do — fight back
- Relieves common symptoms including fatigue, headaches, nausea, and body aches
Cold Medicine Not Cutting It? Here's Why IV Therapy Works Differently.
Most cold and flu remedies — NyQuil, tea, rest — help manage symptoms, but they don't fast-track your recovery. When your body is fighting an infection, it burns through fluids and nutrients at an accelerated rate. If you can't keep fluids down, or you're too exhausted to eat, you quickly fall further behind.
IV therapy works by delivering fluids, electrolytes, and high-dose vitamins directly into your bloodstream — skipping the digestive system entirely. That means faster absorption and faster relief. It's the same approach used in emergency rooms for dehydrated patients, now available without the waiting room.
Think of it less like a remedy and more like hitting the reset button.

Fast Cold / Flu Relief At Home
When you're battling a cold or the flu, finding fast and effective relief is essential. While rest and over-the-counter medications can help, IV hydration offers a direct and efficient way to alleviate symptoms. Bypassing the digestive system, IV therapy delivers fluids and nutrients directly into the bloodstream for quicker relief compared to oral medications, which may be less effective when you're feeling nauseous or congested.
In most cases, we recommend our Myers' Cocktail for patients seeking an effective cold and flu treatment.
The Myers' Cocktail IV bag contains:
- Saline solution to rehydrate your body
- Vitamin B Complex
- Vitamin B12
- Vitamin C
- Zinc
- Magnesium
- Glutathione
This combination of fluids, vitamins, and minerals is a powerful cold/flu remedy that addresses the root causes of your symptoms, like dehydration and nutrient loss. Many patients start to feel better within 30-60 minutes of an IV infusion.

Alleviate Common Symptoms of The Cold and Flu
The common cold and the flu have overlapping symptoms. However, flu symptoms tend to be more severe and more dangerous. They also develop faster and last longer than most cold symptoms.
Our treatments focus on hydration and replenishing essential nutrients, utilizing an IV drip for cold that is specially formulated to support your immune system.
Here are some of the most common symptoms of cold and flu that you might experience:
- Sore throat: A sore throat can indicate either a cold or the flu and can result from irritation caused by repeated coughing. With the flu, a sore throat often starts out feeling scratchy and worsens over time.
- Nasal congestion: Both colds and the flu can prevent the sinuses from draining properly, resulting in a stuffy or runny nose.
- Sneezing and coughing: Sneezing more than usual is an early sign of a cold, but sneezing and persistent, dry coughing can indicate the flu as well. The influenza virus irritates nerve endings in the body's airways, causing these and other respiratory issues.
- Fatigue and weakness: If you have a cold or the flu, you may feel tired and achy. Fatigue and weakness are some of the earliest signs of the flu, and they tend to be more severe than fatigue caused by the common cold.
- Fever: A fever above 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit distinguishes the flu from cold viruses. Fever may be accompanied by sweating and chills.
- Headache: A mild headache or migraine is a common symptom of a cold, and a headache around or behind the eyes can accompany the flu.
Influenza viruses can also lead to serious complications, such as pneumonia, which may require you to visit an emergency room. For mild symptoms, however, does IV therapy help a cold? Yes, it could help you feel better without requiring you to leave your home.
At Rocky Mountain IV Medics, we recommend our Myers’ Cocktail with extra vitamin C (up to 5,000 mg total!) to help patients with cold and flu symptoms.
