Prescription Injections

FAQ

• How is this different from a B12 shot or vitamin injection?

  These are prescription medications targeted at specific symptoms: nausea, pain, allergy, inflammation, reflux. Vitamin injections support nutrient status and general wellness. Different goal, different category, different page. See Vitamin IM Shots or Vitamin Push if wellness is what you need.

• Do I need an outside prescription?

  No. Our licensed clinicians evaluate you on site and administer under MD-supervised standing-order protocols overseen by Medical Director Dr. Neal Kumar.

• Is this covered by insurance?

  We do not bill insurance for these injections. You can use HSA or FSA cards, and we can give you an itemized receipt on request.

• Can I just walk in?

  Appointments are recommended so we can minimize your wait. Same-day availability is often possible. Walk-ins are accommodated when the schedule allows; scheduled appointments take priority.

• How quickly will I feel relief?

  Many patients notice improvement within 15 to 60 minutes. Onset varies by medication and the severity of your symptoms. Your clinician will set realistic expectations during intake.

• Who will administer my injection?

  Our licensed registered nurses, working under MD-supervised standing orders. Every injection follows a clinical protocol that includes screening, medication selection, administration, and observation.

• Can I drive after?

  If you receive a sedating medication like diphenhydramine (Benadryl), please arrange transportation. For most other medications, you can drive after a brief observation period.

• When should I go to urgent care or an ER instead?

  Severe or red-flag symptoms: chest pain, breathing difficulty, suspected anaphylaxis, high fever, or rapidly worsening symptoms. These require urgent care or 911. Our service is for symptom relief in stable patients who do not need emergency-level care.
