What’s in a Myers Cocktail
The canonical Myers formulation includes:
- B-complex (B1, B2, B3, B5, B6) — energy metabolism, nervous-system support
- B12 (methylcobalamin or hydroxocobalamin) — red blood cell production, nervous-system, mood
- Vitamin C (moderate dose, well above RDA) — antioxidant, immune support
- Magnesium chloride — muscle relaxation, migraine prevention, sleep quality
- Calcium gluconate — mineral balance alongside magnesium
- Sterile saline base — the rehydrating carrier for the nutrients
Our Prime IV formulation matches the national Prime IV Myers standard, blended on-site the day of your visit. It’s a predictable, tested combination — not a house custom.
Who benefits most
The Myers isn’t flashy. It’s the drip people come back for once a month, sometimes for years. Best-fit client profiles we see at our Sandy clinic:
- Adults with a history of low B12 or low magnesium on bloodwork
- Clients recovering from long hours, poor sleep, or high stress weeks
- People coming off a stomach bug or a cold and wanting a reset
- Anyone curious about IV therapy and wanting a neutral, non-aggressive first experience
- Vegetarians and vegans who don’t consistently hit B12 targets through food
- Migraine-prone clients (the magnesium piece is especially relevant — see NIH literature on magnesium and migraine)
What it feels like
Most clients notice a warm, metallic taste in the mouth during the push of B-vitamins — that’s normal and fades within minutes. Magnesium can produce a mild warm sensation. The total drip runs about 30–45 minutes. Clients commonly describe the rest of that day as “lighter” — less brain fog, steadier energy, a touch better sleep that night.
Myers vs. other drips
If you’re trying to decide between the Myers and another drip, here are the common comparisons:
- Myers vs. Immunity Armor — Immunity has higher Vitamin C, zinc, and glutathione. Pick Immunity when you’re fighting something. Pick Myers when you’re maintaining.
- Myers vs. Athletic Recovery — Recovery has amino acids and more fluids. Pick Recovery post-event. Pick Myers for baseline.
- Myers vs. Beauty Boost — Beauty has 2,000 mg glutathione. Pick Beauty for visible skin effects. Pick Myers for systemic wellness.
- Myers vs. B12 injection — The shot is faster and cheaper if you just want B12. Pick Myers when you want the full B-complex plus minerals and fluids.
Add-ons people stack with the Myers
- Glutathione push — most common add-on, especially for clients wanting a skin or liver-support boost
- Extra Vitamin C — bump toward immunity-drip territory
- Toradol — if you’re coming in with a headache or post-event soreness
FAQ
Is there research behind the Myers Cocktail?
Yes. Small clinical trials have looked at Myers-style formulations for conditions like fibromyalgia and migraine, and while results are mixed, the individual ingredients have well-established nutritional roles. As a wellness drip — not a disease treatment — it has a long safety record.
Will I feel different right away?
Often yes — within a few hours. Effects typically peak the next day and last 5–10 days.
Can pregnant clients get the Myers?
Not at our clinic without physician clearance. We screen during intake.
Is this the same Myers formulation everywhere?
The base ingredient list is standard across IV wellness clinics. Specific concentrations vary. At Prime IV we follow the national Prime IV Myers standard.
