IV Nerve-Support Infusions for Neuropathy in Lighthouse Point, FL
Vitamin B12, alpha-lipoic acid and NAD+ all have a role in supporting peripheral nerve tissue, and all three have to survive the gut before they can play it. Many neuropathy patients absorb them poorly, which quietly caps what an oral supplement can do no matter how high the dose on the label. An infusion puts these compounds into circulation directly and removes that variable. Formulations are set by your clinician against what your workup found, and every infusion is physician-supervised.
What it is
IV Nerve-Support Infusions
IV nerve-support infusions deliver vitamin B12, alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) and NAD+ directly into circulation through a vein in the arm. Intravenous delivery bypasses the gastrointestinal absorption limits that reduce the efficacy of oral supplementation in many neuropathy patients. Infusions are physician-supervised and given in the clinic.
How it works
Inside a session
- 01Labs and history establish which deficiencies and absorption problems are relevant to your symptoms
- 02An IV line is placed and the nerve-support formulation is started under physician supervision
- 03B12, alpha-lipoic acid and NAD+ enter circulation directly, bypassing gastrointestinal absorption limits
- 04Infusions are scheduled as a series across the initial 8 to 12 week protocol
Why the oral version often underdelivers
Absorption is the limiting step. Age-related changes, gastric surgery and long-term metformin use all narrow the window for absorbing B12 in particular, and a larger oral dose does not fix a ceiling set by the gut. This is a common and often unexamined reason a patient can take supplements for years without a change in symptoms. Intravenous delivery routes around that limit entirely.
What goes into the infusion
The formulation is built around vitamin B12, alpha-lipoic acid and NAD+. These are chosen for their relevance to peripheral nerve support rather than assembled as a general wellness drip. What your specific infusion contains is decided by your clinician against your labs and your root-cause findings. Everything is prepared and run under physician supervision in the clinic.
Chair time and what the visit looks like
An IV line is placed in the arm and you sit for the length of the infusion, which varies with the formulation. You can read, work or take calls. NAD+ is infused slowly by design, because a faster rate is more likely to produce flushing, chest tightness or nausea during the infusion. Plan for an unhurried appointment rather than a quick stop.
Fit with the rest of the protocol
Infusions support nerve tissue nutritionally. They do not lower an A1c, correct a thyroid deficiency or decompress a nerve root. Inside the Rebuild Neuropathy Protocol™ they run alongside whichever corrections your workup identified, and they are often scheduled in the same visit block as laser therapy. Rebuild Therapy Infusions Center, a sibling clinic at the same street address, handles general infusion therapy; the formulations here are matched specifically to neuropathy.
Candidacy
Who this suits, and where it stops
Typically appropriate for
- Documented B12 deficiency that oral supplementation has not corrected
- Patients on long-term metformin or with a history of gastric surgery
- Diabetic or metabolic neuropathy where nutritional support is part of the treatment plan
- Idiopathic peripheral neuropathy with a nutritional component identified at workup
Not appropriate for
- Complete denervation confirmed by absent potentials on nerve conduction studies rather than reduced amplitudes, which no infusion reverses
- Patients whose labs show no deficiency and no absorption problem to correct
- Anyone looking for a single infusion instead of addressing the underlying root cause

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to be deficient in B12 for this to help?
Labs come first. If your levels and absorption are normal, your clinician will say so and the protocol will lean on the components that fit your root cause instead. Infusions are prescribed against findings, not offered by default.
How is this different from a wellness drip?
The compounds are selected for peripheral nerve support: vitamin B12, alpha-lipoic acid and NAD+. It is prescribed as part of a neuropathy protocol built on your workup, not chosen from a menu. Every infusion is physician-supervised and given in the clinic.
Should I stop my oral supplements?
Bring the full list, including doses, to your consultation. Some oral supplements complement the infusions and some duplicate them, and that call belongs to your clinician rather than to a web page. Nothing is changed without reviewing what you are already taking.
Will insurance cover the infusions?
Coverage varies by plan, and IV infusions are one of the components where policies differ most. Some patients have partial coverage and others have none. Pricing is reviewed transparently at consultation before you commit to anything.
