IV Therapy for Acute Illness in Cabo
When the IV is medically indicated — not wellness — for an active illness picked up on vacation. Doctor-supervised, prescription-ready, hospital-escalation if needed.
The clinical use cases
Food poisoning, viral gastroenteritis, severe dehydration, heat exhaustion, acute migraine, flu with fever, post-flight collapse, post-ER follow-up, mild urinary infections, sinus infections needing IV support, and post-procedure recovery for medical-tourism patients.
A real medical workup
Intake history, symptom timeline, focused exam, vital signs, sometimes same-day labs, then the IV protocol — fluid base, additives, prescription medications, infusion rate, monitoring plan.
When the bag isn’t just saline
Zofran for nausea, Toradol for pain, famotidine for stomach acid, antibiotics when warranted, IV antihistamines and steroids for allergic reactions, magnesium for migraine. A wellness operator cannot legally provide these.
Hospital escalation pathway
If labs come back concerning, symptoms worsen, or the picture suggests something more serious — appendicitis, sepsis, pneumonia, cardiac event — we coordinate via emergency care and ambulance service to our partner hospital.
