What is Plaquex® IV Therapy?
Plaquex IV Therapy is a form of regenerative medicine designed to support the body at its most fundamental level: the cell.
Plaquex® contains a purified form of phosphatidylcholine, which is essential for cell health. It is delivered intravenously to ensure full absorption and allow the PC to reach your heart, brain, liver, and blood vessels to support the repair, detoxification, and regeneration of your cells.
Because it works on a cellular level, Plaquex therapy is growing in popularity as a holistic treatment option among functional medicine practitioners and patients looking for alternatives to conventional cardiovascular health approaches.
What is Phosphatidylcholine (PC)?
Phosphatidylcholine (PC) is an essential nutrient that makes up nearly half of every cell membrane in your body. Healthy membranes keep cells flexible, resilient, and able to communicate properly.
Over time, stress, aging, toxins, and poor diet can weaken these membranes. When PC levels decline, cell membranes become rigid and less functional leading to inflammation, a sluggish metabolism, and reduced cellular communication.
Plaquex IV Therapy delivers PC directly into the bloodstream, replenishing what the body can’t get through diet alone. This helps to strengthen and protect cells, supporting long-term cellular health, vitality, and longevity.
What Is in a Plaquex® IV Drip?
Plaquex IV Therapy delivers PC and other essential nutrients though an intravenous (IV) needle to maximize cellular absorption.
Each Plaquex formulation is different. While PC is always the primary ingredient, individual formulations may also feature additional nutrients customized to match the patient’s needs. These include:
- Phosphatidylcholine (PC)
- Glutathione
- Alpha-Lipoic Acid (ALA)
- B Vitamins
- Vitamin C
- Magnesium
- Calcium
- Sodium Bicarbonate
- Dextrose (5%)
- Sodium Chloride (Saline)
This personalization ensures that your Plaquex infusions are thoughtfully designed for your unique cellular needs and wellness goals.
How Plaquex® IV Therapy Works
When PC is administered intravenously, it circulates throughout the body as tiny lipid particles called liposomes. These liposomes travel to the heart, liver, brain, and blood vessels, integrating PC into damaged or oxidized cell membranes.
This process helps cells:
- Communicate more efficiently
- Better regulate what enters and exits the cell
- Respond more effectively to hormones and neurotransmitters
- Repair damage
- Generate energy more effectively
Over time, this cellular support and renewal can help to improve organ function, circulation, focus, and cardiovascular health.
Benefits of Plaquex® and Phosphatidylchlone (PC)
Plaquex IV Therapy may deliver a wide range of benefits to support overall health:
Improves Brain Health & Nerve Function
Repairs the Gut Lining
Supports Liver Repair
Supports Detoxification
Balances Cholesterol and Supports Cardiovascular Health
Regulates Circulation and Reduces The Need for Blood Thinners
Restores & Boosts Skin Health
Combination Therapy
While Plaquex offers numerous benefits on its own, it is often combined with other therapies to accelerate its positive effects.
IV Glutathione Therapy, which increases a body’s antioxidant levels to address oxidative stress, is a common pairing with Plaquex IV therapy. Together, these treatments can achieve the goals of treatment faster, reaching the long-term benefits of improved cellular and vascular health more quickly.
Side Effects of Plaquex® and Phosphatidylchlone (PC)
Plaquex IV Therapy is considered safe for most adult patients. While some people may experience mild, temporary side effects as the body adjusts to receiving phosphatidylcholine intravenously, it is well-tolerated by most patients.
Potential side effects of Plaquex IV Therapy include:
- Lightheadness
- Sweating
- Swelling at the injection site
- Nausea
- Mild Digestive Changes
These side effects are usually brief. If symptoms persist, it’s important to discuss your concerns and experience with a healthcare provider.
As a precaution, Plaquex and other phosphatidylcholine IV therapies are not recommended for anyone who is pregnant or breastfeeding.

What to Expect During A Plaquex® IV Therapy Sessions
A typical Plaquex IV Therapy session lasts 90-120 minutes, giving your body plenty of time to absorb the PC and other restorative nutrients. Many patients spend the time reading, working, or simply relaxing.
Patients are guided through the process by our medical staff in a comfortable, monitored environment. Our medical team is there to support you every step of the way, from consultation to recovery.
Consultation
Before beginning treatment, our team will review your medical history and goals and take a small sample of your blood. This allows us to assess your current organ function. Based on your results, we’ll create a customized treatment plan tailored to your needs, explain the next steps to prepare you for the infusion and address any concerns.
Treatment
Hydration is key to Plaquex IV therapy, and patients are encouraged to drink water before and after their session.
Each Plaquex IV therapy session can last up to two hours. Treatments are performed and overseen by our trained medical staff who monitor vital signs and comfort throughout the session. We ensure that the environment is quiet, comfortable, and restorative to support your relaxation throughout.
Administration
After inserting an IV, your customized blend of phosphatidylcholine and other nutrients is administered slowly to maximize absorption and comfort and to facilitate circulation to the heart, liver, and blood vessels.
The number and frequency of Plaquex treatments needed depends on the patient’s overall health and wellness goals. Each dose is personalized based on the individual’s cardiovascular health, goals, and overall wellness profile.
During the 90-120 Minutes
Timing is critical to ensure the effectiveness of Plaquex IV therapy. Sessions last between 90-120 minutes to allow your body to effectively absorb and circulate the nutrients. Many patients read, rest, meditate, or work quietly during this time.
Some people experience subtle sensations such as mild warmth or relaxation as the nutrients begin to circulate. These are normal and temporary. Our trained medical staff remains present throughout the treatment to monitor your vitals and ensure your safety.
Recovery
For most patients, recovery from IV therapy treatments is straightforward: many of our patients resume normal activities immediately. Some people may experience mild side effects like fatigue or localized discomfort. The experience and length of recovery varies by individual, but we will share post-treatment care instructions to help you get back to your normal routine. Follow-up sessions may also be scheduled to monitor progress and enhance the treatment’s benefits.
Combination Therapy
Many patients choose to pair Plaquex with Glutathione or other IV therapies for added detoxification and cellular support. This combination enhances the body’s natural repair processes, promoting quicker, more sustainable results.
