Vitamin Cocktail IV Infusion in Lima, Peru
Custom multi-nutrient IV drips for energy, skin radiance, immune support, and recovery. Physician-supervised infusions from ~$100 USD in Miraflores.
What Is a Vitamin Cocktail IV?
A vitamin cocktail IV is a multi-nutrient intravenous infusion that combines several vitamins, minerals, and sometimes amino acids into a single, comprehensive treatment. The concept was pioneered by Dr. John Myers, a Baltimore physician who developed the original "Myers' cocktail" — a blend of magnesium, calcium, B vitamins, and vitamin C administered intravenously for general wellness support. Today, this foundational approach has evolved into a range of targeted formulas designed for specific wellness goals.
What makes vitamin cocktail IVs so effective is the synergistic combination of nutrients. Rather than delivering a single vitamin in isolation, these multi-nutrient formulas provide complementary ingredients that work together — for example, B vitamins support energy metabolism while magnesium supports muscle relaxation and vitamin C provides antioxidant protection. The intravenous route ensures that all of these nutrients reach your cells at optimal concentrations, far exceeding what oral supplements can achieve.
At Elyzea in Miraflores, Lima, our vitamin cocktail IV protocols are designed under the supervision of Dr. Geldres, a board-certified plastic surgeon. We offer several pre-designed formulas targeting specific goals — energy, skin health, immunity, and recovery — as well as the ability to create fully customized blends based on your individual needs. For medical tourism visitors, our vitamin cocktail IVs are an ideal way to support your wellness during your Lima trip.

How Does a Vitamin Cocktail IV Work?
The vitamin cocktail IV process at Elyzea is designed for comfort, safety, and effectiveness. Most sessions take between 30 and 60 minutes.
Consultation and health screening: Our medical team begins with a brief health assessment to understand your wellness goals, medical history, and any specific concerns. Based on this evaluation, we recommend the most appropriate cocktail formula or design a custom blend for you.
Formula preparation: Your vitamin cocktail is prepared fresh using pharmaceutical-grade ingredients in a sterile environment. The specific combination of vitamins, minerals, and nutrients is mixed according to the protocol selected for your goals.
IV placement: A small, sterile catheter is inserted into a vein in your arm — a quick procedure similar to a standard blood draw, causing only minimal discomfort.
Infusion: The multi-nutrient solution is infused steadily into your bloodstream. You may notice a gentle warming sensation (common with magnesium) or a slight vitamin taste — both are normal. You can relax, read, or use your phone during the session.
Completion: Once the infusion is complete, the catheter is removed and a small bandage applied. You can leave immediately and resume all activities — sightseeing, dining, exercise — without any restrictions.
Vitamin Cocktail Options at Elyzea
We offer several targeted vitamin cocktail formulas, each designed to address specific wellness goals. Our medical team will recommend the best option based on your individual needs — or create a fully customized blend.
Energy & Vitality: A high-energy formula featuring B-complex vitamins (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6, B12), magnesium, and vitamin C. Designed to combat fatigue, support metabolic energy production, and restore vitality. Ideal for jet-lagged travelers, busy professionals, and anyone feeling run down.
Skin Radiance: A beauty-focused formula combining high-dose vitamin C, biotin, glutathione, B-complex, and zinc. Supports collagen synthesis, antioxidant protection, and a brighter, more luminous complexion. Pairs excellently with HydraFacial, Morpheus8, or fractional CO2 laser treatments.
Immune Defense: A protective formula featuring vitamin C, zinc, selenium, B-complex, and magnesium. Designed to reinforce the body's natural immune defenses — especially valuable for travelers exposed to new environments, altitude changes, and the physical demands of touring.
Recovery & Rehydration: A restorative formula combining electrolytes, B-complex, magnesium, calcium, and vitamin C in a generous saline base. Ideal for rehydration after long flights, physical activity, altitude exposure, or as a general wellness reset.
Custom blend: For patients with specific goals or health considerations, our medical team can create a fully personalized cocktail with ingredients selected specifically for you.
Results & What to Expect
Vitamin cocktail IV infusions provide both immediate and progressive benefits, depending on the formula used and your baseline health.
Immediate effects: Most patients feel noticeably more hydrated and energized within hours of their infusion. The Energy & Vitality and Recovery formulas often produce the fastest perceptible results, with many patients describing a clear energy boost the same day.
Skin benefits: The Skin Radiance formula supports improvements in complexion brightness and tone that develop over the following days. For the most visible skin improvements, a series of sessions is recommended, with many patients noticing a significant difference after 3 to 4 treatments.
Cumulative wellness: Regular vitamin cocktail IV sessions contribute to sustained nutrient levels, consistent energy, and overall vitality. Patients on a regular schedule (every 2 to 4 weeks) report the most significant long-term benefits.
For medical tourism visitors: Even a single vitamin cocktail IV during your Lima trip can make a meaningful difference in your energy, hydration, and wellness. Many visitors schedule a Recovery formula upon arrival (to counteract jet lag and travel fatigue) and a Skin Radiance or Energy formula before departure.
Recovery: Zero downtime. Resume all activities immediately. Stay hydrated throughout the day for optimal results.
