What Is a Myers’ Cocktail? Ingredients & Benefits

The classic Myers’ Cocktail is a vitamin-and-mineral IV blend named after Dr. John Myers, who popularized the formula. A typical version includes magnesium, calcium, vitamin C, B-complex vitamins, and vitamin B12, mixed into hydrating fluids and infused over about 30–60 minutes. The exact recipe can be tailored slightly to your wellness goals. Because it’s delivered by IV, the nutrients are introduced directly rather than through digestion. Drip Refresh prepares each Myers’ Cocktail with a registered nurse on-site, who confirms the blend is appropriate for you before starting. It’s a long-standing favorite among IV wellness formulas.

People choose a Myers’ Cocktail to support hydration, energy levels, and overall wellness. The B vitamins are associated with supporting normal energy metabolism, vitamin C with antioxidant and immune support, and magnesium with muscle and nervous-system function. Many clients book it for a general pick-me-up, to support recovery after a busy or active stretch, or as part of a wellness routine. It’s important to frame these as wellness support rather than medical treatment: a Myers’ Cocktail may help you feel refreshed and replenished, but it isn’t intended to cure, treat, or prevent any disease. Drip Refresh’s nurses can help match the formula to your goals.

The Myers’ Cocktail appeals to a broad range of wellness-minded people: busy professionals, travelers, athletes, and anyone wanting hydration plus a vitamin boost in one convenient session. It’s a frequent choice for those new to IV therapy because it’s a well-known, balanced blend. People recovering from a hectic week, a big event, or strenuous activity often pick it for general replenishment. As with any IV, those who are pregnant, take medications, or have a medical condition should check with their own doctor first. Drip Refresh delivers the Myers’ Cocktail to your door so you can enjoy it without leaving home.

A Drip Refresh registered nurse comes to your home, hotel, or office, performs a brief health check, and then places a small IV line. The Myers’ Cocktail is infused slowly over roughly 30–60 minutes, a pace that helps the body take in the magnesium and other nutrients comfortably. You can relax, work, or watch TV during the session. When it’s complete, the nurse removes the line and cleans up. Many clients feel hydrated and refreshed afterward and can resume their day right away. Because it’s available 24/7 and often same-day, you can schedule it around your routine.

As a standard IV drip, a Myers’ Cocktail typically falls within Drip Refresh’s $100–$400 range, depending on your city and any add-ons you choose. Pricing is quoted upfront with no insurance or clinic visit involved, so you’ll know your total before the nurse arrives. If you’d like extra vitamins or a complementary B12 or glutathione shot, those can be added for an additional cost. Because Drip Refresh serves 170+ cities, the exact price varies by market.
