Tummy Bug IV in Cape Town

Feeling unwell with a tummy bug, gastro, vomiting or diarrhoea? Skye Health provides IV hydration and supportive symptom management, available at our De Waterkant clinic or through our mobile service to selected homes and hotels.

IV hydration and support when you’re feeling unwell

Tummy bugs, gastroenteritis and food-related illness can cause vomiting and diarrhoea, leading to fluid loss and dehydration. When appropriate, following a clinical assessment, IV therapy can support rehydration when you’re struggling to keep up with fluids orally. At Skye Health, our registered nurses assess you before treatment and provide IV hydration and supportive symptom management according to our clinical protocols. If your symptoms suggest that you need further medical assessment or a higher level of care, we’ll advise you accordingly.

Tummy Bug IV FAQs

Can an IV help with dehydration from a tummy bug?

IV fluids can support rehydration when vomiting or diarrhoea has caused fluid loss and, following assessment, IV therapy is appropriate. Treatment does not cure the underlying infection or illness, and some symptoms may require further medical assessment.

Can Skye Health come to my hotel or home?

Yes. Skye Health offers mobile IV therapy to selected homes, hotels and other locations across Cape Town. You can also visit our IV lounge in De Waterkant.

What happens during an appointment?

A registered nurse will assess your symptoms and relevant medical history. Where IV therapy is appropriate, treatment may include IV hydration and supportive symptom management in accordance with our clinical protocols. Medication requires a prescription where applicable. Further medical assessment can be arranged through our doctor; clients requiring a higher level of care will be referred.

When should I seek medical care instead?

IV therapy is not a substitute for urgent medical care. Severe or worsening abdominal pain, blood in vomit or stool, confusion, fainting, significant weakness or persistent inability to keep fluids down require appropriate medical assessment.
