IV hydration delivers fluids and electrolytes straight into a vein, rehydrating you faster than drinking when vomiting, diarrhea, fever or heat have drained you. At Urgentology Care in Arlington and Colleyville, a provider orders IV treatment after examining you and can add anti-nausea or migraine medicine when it's needed.
Every IV at Urgentology Care is ordered by a provider after an exam, for a medical reason.
Urgentology Care provides medically indicated IV fluids and treatment for dehydration-related symptoms. Every IV treatment is ordered by a provider after an examination.
IV hydration may be appropriate when you cannot keep small sips of fluid down, feel dizzy when standing or have very little urine. A provider will assess your dehydration and determine whether IV treatment or a higher level of care is needed.
If you can keep fluids down and your symptoms are mild, drinking fluids may be sufficient. Your provider will help determine which option you need rather than recommending an IV unnecessarily.
For life-threatening symptoms such as severe difficulty breathing, throat swelling, chest pain, signs of stroke, or uncontrolled bleeding, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department.

“Heard about this place through a friend and decided to give it a try even though I live 25 min away. It was a great choice because the nurses and doctor were very attentive and cared to listen to everything I had to say.”
