An IV is a small tube that is inserted into a vein to deliver medication, fluids, or nutrients directly into the bloodstream. IV therapy is a common and effective way to provide treatment or support for various medical conditions.
An IV can be used for a variety of reasons, including to hydrate the body, to provide nutrients and electrolytes, to administer medication, or to perform diagnostic tests. IV therapy is also commonly used in hospital settings to provide support for critically ill patients.

Receiving an IV typically involves sitting or lying down and allowing the healthcare provider to insert the IV into a vein. You may feel a small sting or pressure when the IV is inserted, but the procedure is usually quick and relatively painless. During the treatment, you may be asked to lie still or to move around as needed, depending on the type of treatment you are receiving.
Some people may experience mild discomfort or pain when receiving an IV, especially if the IV is inserted into a small or difficult-to-access vein. In most cases, however, the discomfort is minimal and quickly subsides. If you are experiencing pain during the procedure, it is important to let your healthcare provider know.
The length of an IV treatment will vary based on the type of treatment and the reason for the treatment. In some cases, an IV treatment may last just a few minutes, while in others, it may last several hours or even several days.
