Nutrients that work.
Results you feel.

When you take a vitamin orally, your body absorbs roughly 20–30% after digestion. Intravenously, you receive 100% — directly into your bloodstream, immediately available to every cell. No wasted potential. No guesswork.

Every drip at Maddog is formulated by Dr. Du Plessis and administered by Sister Wren Kobus — a SANC-registered nurse with 20+ years in wellness and 6 years in Emergency Room care — following a proper clinical assessment.

R600 💧

Hydration IV

Rehydrate · Restore · Reset

A clean, fast-acting saline-based infusion enriched with electrolytes to restore fluid balance at a cellular level. When your body is dehydrated — whether from training, travel, illness or lifestyle — oral fluids alone can't reach the cells fast enough. IV hydration bypasses digestion entirely.

Benefits

  • Rapid rehydration — effects felt within minutes
  • Restores electrolyte balance
  • Reduces headaches, fatigue and brain fog
  • Improves skin plumpness and tone
  • Supports kidney function and detox

Best for: Hangover recovery, post-travel fatigue, illness recovery, pre-event hydration, general dehydration

Jet Fuel IV

Formulated to fire up your energy systems without the crash of stimulants. A targeted blend of B-vitamins, amino acids and co-factors that support mitochondrial function — your body's energy production at its most fundamental level.

Benefits

  • Sustained energy without jitters or crash
  • Supports cellular energy (ATP) production
  • Reduces mental and physical fatigue
  • Improves endurance and output
  • Supports adrenal function and stress resilience

Recovery IV

Reduce Soreness · Restore Energy

Designed specifically for post-training and post-competition recovery — the same formulation used by Maddog's competitive athletes as part of their training recovery. A potent combination of magnesium, B-vitamins, amino acids and antioxidants that accelerates the repair of muscle tissue, clears metabolic waste and replenishes what training depletes.

Benefits

  • Significantly reduces DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness)
  • Accelerates muscle repair and tissue regeneration
  • Replenishes vitamins and minerals lost through sweat
  • Reduces recovery time between sessions
  • Supports quality sleep post-training

Best for: Athletes post-training, competition recovery, physical labour, heavy workout weeks

Inflammation IV

Reduce · Repair · Recover

Chronic inflammation is the root cause of fatigue, joint pain, poor recovery and accelerated ageing. This protocol delivers a high-dose anti-inflammatory combination — including Vitamin C, magnesium and targeted antioxidants — to calm the inflammatory response at a systemic level.

Benefits

  • Reduces systemic and localised inflammation
  • Supports joint health and mobility
  • Improves energy levels blunted by chronic inflammation
  • Aids in post-injury healing
  • Reduces inflammatory markers over repeated sessions

Best for: Chronic joint pain, post-injury, autoimmune conditions, long COVID recovery, general fatigue

Push further. Stay protected.

For those who demand more from their body — whether in sport, business or life. These protocols support sustained performance output, immune resilience and deep-system detox.

R1,400 🏆

Energy Performance IV

  • Shortens duration of illness when taken early
  • High-dose Vitamin C delivers potent antiviral effects

R1,300 🌊

Detox IV

Deep Cleanse · Cellular Reset

The liver is your body's primary detox organ — but it needs the right cofactors to function optimally. This protocol delivers glutathione precursors, B-vitamins and antioxidants that support hepatic detoxification pathways, clear metabolic waste and reset cellular function.

Benefits

  • Clears oxidative stress and free radical damage
  • Improves skin clarity and tone

Common Questions

IV Therapy FAQ.

How much does IV therapy cost? +

Who prescribes and administers the drips? +
Every drip is prescribed by Dr. Deo Du Plessis and administered by Sister Amanda "Wren" Kobus, a Registered Nurse Practitioner, in a clinical setting.
Is IV therapy safe? +
Yes. Every client receives a health screening before treatment, and drips are administered by a qualified nurse practitioner following a doctor's protocol.
Can I get a bespoke IV protocol? +
Yes. Following a review of your bloodwork and a clinical assessment with Dr. Du Plessis, a bespoke IV formulation can be designed specifically around your deficiencies, goals and health status.
Do I need to be a Maddog gym member? +
No — IV therapy is open to the public, no Maddog Performance Institute gym membership required.
Do you offer NAD+ IV therapy? +
Yes — NAD+ has its own dedicated longevity and anti-ageing protocol, separate from our standard drip menu. See our NAD+ & Longevity page for full pricing and details.
What is IV therapy? +
IV (intravenous) therapy delivers vitamins, minerals, fluids and other nutrients directly into your bloodstream through a small vein catheter, bypassing the digestive system entirely.
Why is IV therapy more effective than oral supplements? +
Oral supplements have to survive digestion before your body can absorb them, often losing much of their potency along the way. IV therapy delivers nutrients straight into the bloodstream for 100% bioavailability and immediate effect.
