Infusion therapy delivers vitamins, minerals and medication directly into the bloodstream, with no burden on the stomach and with effects that begin immediately. At the Medical Time hospital in Belgrade, infusions are given in a comfortable treatment room under constant supervision of medical staff.
Every protocol is defined by a doctor, based on your condition and the goal of the therapy. An infusion with us is never an off the shelf product, it is a therapy tailored to you.

How infusion therapy works
In infusion therapy the medication, vitamin or mineral bypasses digestion and enters the bloodstream directly. The effect therefore begins immediately and the body uses almost the entire amount, unlike tablets where part of the substance never reaches the cells.
That is the main reason an infusion is chosen when replenishment is needed quickly, when digestion is impaired, or when oral therapy has not produced results. The solution is given slowly, drop by drop, so the body has time to take it in without a sudden load.
Which ingredients are given depends on the goal of the therapy and your test results, and the decision is always made by a doctor. The complete list of individual infusions with prices is linked below.
When infusion therapy makes sense
Infusions are usually chosen when fluids, vitamins or minerals need to be replenished quickly, or when oral therapy is not sufficient. Typical situations include recovery after illness or physical strain, chronic fatigue, preparation for demanding periods and recovery after surgery.
For anaemia, migraine and similar conditions, an infusion is introduced only on the basis of test results and the doctor's assessment, as part of a broader treatment plan.
What the therapy looks like
Before your first infusion the doctor reviews your health, current medication and possible allergies, and only then approves the protocol. The infusion itself usually takes 30 to 60 minutes, and you are monitored by staff the whole time.
For patients who cannot come to the hospital, we arrange the same therapy at home, with identical preparation and safety standards.
Safety first
Every infusion is prepared individually, according to indication and the doctor's assessment. We keep a record of every therapy received, and the staff is trained to recognise and manage any adverse reaction immediately.
Frequently asked questions about infusion therapy
No referral is needed. Before the first infusion the doctor performs a short assessment and approves the protocol based on it. If you have recent laboratory results, bring them along, as they make choosing the therapy easier.
The frequency is set by the doctor according to the goal of the therapy and your condition. Some protocols are given once, others in a series spaced a few days or weeks apart. You receive a precise plan before the therapy starts.
