The Elixir Bar

The HOA Elixir Bar is House of Aetheria's medically supervised IV wellness lounge — a dedicated space where patients receive customised intravenous nutrient infusions tailored to their health and wellness goals. All sessions are administered by trained medical staff under physician supervision.

IV drip sessions at the HOA Elixir Bar range from approximately ₹4,500 to ₹12,000 per session depending on the protocol. Entry-level drips like the Immune Boost or Vitamin C start at the lower end. Mid-range protocols — Glutathione Glow, Myers' Cocktail, Skin Glow — fall in the middle tier. The NAD+ Infusion, our most advanced and longest-lasting protocol, is at the premium end. Exact cost is confirmed at your pre-session consultation based on the protocol your specialist recommends for your goal.

IV drips deliver nutrients directly into the bloodstream at 100% bioavailability — bypassing the digestive system entirely. Benefits vary by protocol but commonly include improved energy levels, enhanced immune function, better hydration, faster recovery, mental clarity and reduced fatigue. Because the compounds reach cells immediately rather than after gut absorption, results are faster and more pronounced than oral supplementation at equivalent doses.

IV drips for skin deliver antioxidants and skin-supporting nutrients at concentrations oral intake cannot match. Glutathione inhibits melanin synthesis and reduces oxidative damage, leading to a measurably brighter, more even complexion. High-dose vitamin C supports collagen synthesis and amplifies glutathione's effect. Most patients notice visible luminosity and improved skin tone within 3 to 5 sessions.

Glutathione is the body's most powerful endogenous antioxidant. A glutathione IV drip administers it intravenously at therapeutic doses — bypassing the gut, where oral glutathione is largely degraded before reaching the bloodstream. The IV route delivers 100% of the dose directly into circulation. Effects include: skin brightening and even-toning by inhibiting tyrosinase (the enzyme that drives melanin production), reduced oxidative stress, improved liver detoxification and a visible radiance that builds across sessions. It is the most requested protocol at the Elixir Bar, frequently combined with high-dose vitamin C which regenerates glutathione and extends its effect.

IV drip side effects are typically mild and short-lived. The most common are: minor bruising or soreness at the cannula site, a brief cool or warm sensation along the vein, a faint metallic taste (particularly with magnesium or vitamin C), and occasional mild lightheadedness if the patient is under-hydrated before the session. Nausea is rare. More significant reactions — phlebitis, infection or electrolyte imbalance — are uncommon and are prevented by the pre-session consultation, pharmaceutical-grade compounds, slow infusion rates and continuous vitals monitoring that are standard at the Elixir Bar.

Yes — weakness and fatigue are among the most common reasons patients visit the Elixir Bar. The Energy Restore protocol (NAD+ with B-complex and amino acids) and the Myers' Cocktail (magnesium, calcium, B5, B6, B12, vitamin C) are specifically formulated for this. IV delivery corrects nutrient deficiencies that drive fatigue at the cellular level, where oral supplements often cannot reach in therapeutic concentrations. Most patients notice improved energy and mental clarity within 24 hours of their session.

In clinical medicine, the four primary IV fluid types are: (1) Normal Saline (0.9% NaCl) — the most widely used isotonic crystalloid for hydration; (2) Lactated Ringer's — balanced electrolyte solution for volume replacement; (3) Dextrose 5% in Water (D5W) — used for calories and free water; (4) Colloids — protein-based solutions like albumin used in critical care. At the Elixir Bar, we use pharmaceutical-grade nutrient infusions — glutathione, NAD+, high-dose vitamins, amino acids and minerals — delivered in a compatible saline carrier, tailored to your wellness protocol rather than acute medical fluid replacement.

For the right goal, yes. IV therapy delivers results that oral supplementation genuinely cannot — particularly for glutathione, NAD+ and high-dose vitamin C, where gut absorption is either limited or the therapeutic dose is bowel-intolerant orally. If you have a clear objective (skin brightening, energy restoration, immune support, longevity), the Elixir Bar is the most direct route to it. The value depends on the protocol and how well your specialist matches it to your actual need — which is why the pre-session consultation matters.

NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is a coenzyme found in every cell in the body. It is essential for mitochondrial energy production, DNA repair, cellular regeneration and the activation of sirtuins — proteins linked to longevity and healthy ageing. NAD+ levels decline with age, stress and poor sleep, which is directly linked to fatigue, cognitive fog and reduced cellular resilience. IV NAD+ bypasses the poor conversion rates of oral precursors (NMN, NR) and delivers the active coenzyme directly to cells. It is used for energy optimisation, cognitive clarity, longevity protocols, addiction recovery support and anti-aging.

NAD+ IV therapy is contraindicated or requires caution in: patients with active cancer or a history of certain malignancies (NAD+ may support cellular proliferation); those on anticoagulants or blood-thinning medications; pregnant or breastfeeding women; patients with severe liver or kidney disease; and individuals with a history of hypotension (NAD+ can transiently lower blood pressure during infusion). The pre-session consultation at the Elixir Bar screens for all of these. If you have any chronic condition or take regular medication, disclose this fully before your session.

Frequency depends on your goal. For acute needs (recovery, immune support), a single session is often sufficient. For ongoing goals like skin glow or energy, weekly sessions for 4–6 weeks followed by monthly maintenance is a common protocol. NAD+ is often done as a course of 4–6 sessions over two weeks, then monthly. Your specialist will prescribe the right cadence based on your response.

Yes — all Elixir Bar sessions are administered by trained medical staff. Vitals are monitored before and during infusion. Only pharmaceutical-grade compounds are used. A pre-infusion consultation screens for contraindications. Serious adverse events are rare when proper clinical protocol is followed.
