Myers’ Cocktail is one of the most well-known and widely used nutritional IV infusions in functional and integrative medicine. It delivers a powerful blend of vitamins and minerals directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system for maximum absorption and immediate cellular availability.

This IV was developed by the late Dr. John Myers and has been used for decades to support patients dealing with fatigue, stress, immune challenges, migraines, muscle tension, and chronic illness.

Why IV Nutrients?

When nutrients are taken orally, absorption can be limited by:

• Poor digestion or gut inflammation
• Malabsorption syndromes
• Chronic stress
• Medications that deplete nutrients

IV therapy allows nutrients to reach therapeutic levels quickly—often producing noticeable benefits within hours to days.

What’s in a Myers’ Cocktail?

💧 Vitamin C:

• A powerful antioxidant that supports immune function
• Helps reduce oxidative stress and inflammation
• Supports collagen production, tissue repair, and adrenal health

Helpful for: immune support, inflammation, frequent illness, adrenal fatigue

⚡ B-Complex Vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12):

B vitamins work as a team in the body. They are water-soluble, used quickly under stress, and essential for turning food into energy, supporting the nervous system, and helping the body adapt to physical and emotional demands. Delivering them intravenously allows for rapid cellular uptake—especially helpful for people under chronic stress or with digestive issues. Let's break them down and explain each one and its benefit:

Vitamin B1 (Thiamine):

Thiamine plays a critical role in converting carbohydrates into usable energy. It supports nerve signaling, muscle function, and proper brain activity. Thiamine is often depleted during periods of high stress, illness, or poor appetite.

Supports:
• Energy production
• Nervous system function
• Brain clarity and focus

Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin):

Riboflavin is essential for mitochondrial energy production and antioxidant activity. It helps recycle other antioxidants (like glutathione) and supports cellular detoxification pathways.

Supports:
• Cellular energy (mitochondrial health)
• Antioxidant defense
• Headache and migraine support

Vitamin B3 (Niacin / Niacinamide):

Vitamin B3 is vital for cellular repair, metabolism, and circulation. It helps the body manage inflammation and supports healthy cholesterol metabolism. In IV form, niacinamide is often used to avoid flushing while still delivering benefits.

Supports:
• Energy metabolism
• Circulation and cardiovascular health
• Cellular repair and inflammation balance

Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid):

Known as the “stress vitamin,” B5 is crucial for adrenal hormone production, including cortisol. It supports the body’s ability to respond to physical and emotional stress and helps with fatty acid metabolism.

Supports:
• Adrenal and stress resilience
• Hormone production
• Energy and stamina

Vitamin B6 (Pyridoxine):

B6 is essential for neurotransmitter production, including serotonin, dopamine, and GABA. It plays a role in mood regulation, sleep quality, immune function, and amino acid metabolism.

Supports:
• Mood and emotional balance
• Nervous system health
• Immune support and inflammation regulation

Vitamin B12 (Methylcobalamin):

Vitamin B12 is critical for red blood cell formation, nerve protection, and DNA synthesis. Many people struggle to absorb B12 orally due to gut issues, low stomach acid, or genetic factors—making IV delivery especially effective.

Supports:
• Energy and fatigue reduction
• Brain function and memory
• Nervous system repair and red blood cell production

🧠 Magnesium:

• Calms the nervous system and relaxes muscles
• Supports over 300 enzymatic reactions in the body
• Plays a key role in sleep, stress regulation, and migraine prevention

Helpful for: anxiety, muscle tension, headaches, sleep issues, PMS

⚙️ Calcium:

• Supports muscle contraction and nerve signaling
• Works synergistically with magnesium for neuromuscular balance

Helpful for: muscle function, nerve health, physical stress

🔋 Trace Minerals:

• Support enzyme activity and metabolic processes
• Help optimize nutrient utilization and cellular communication

Helpful for: overall metabolic health and nutrient balance
