Our IV Infusion Department is now Administering Vitamin D3 Injections
At the Texas Center for Lifestyle Medicine, we're committed to providing our patients with the most comprehensive and personalized care. That's why we're excited to announce our IV Infusion Team is now offering vitamin D3 injections for those with a documented deficiency.
The Importance of Vitamin D Vitamin D3, also known as cholecalciferol, is a fat-soluble vitamin that plays a crucial role in regulating calcium and phosphate absorption. Adequate vitamin D levels are essential for maintaining strong bones and teeth. However, the impact of this vital nutrient goes beyond musculoskeletal health – it also contributes to:
- Supporting immune function
- Reducing inflammation
- Promoting cognitive health
- Regulating mood and energy levels
Despite its importance, vitamin D deficiency is a common issue, particularly among those with limited sun exposure, certain medical conditions, or specific dietary habits.
Our Personalized Approach to Vitamin D3 Injections If you're experiencing symptoms of vitamin D deficiency or have recent lab results indicating low levels, our team can help. Here's what you need to know about our new vitamin D3 injection service:
- Initial Evaluation: You'll need to schedule an appointment with one of our providers for a comprehensive evaluation. This will include a review of your medical history, symptoms, and recent lab work to determine if you're an ideal candidate for vitamin D3 injections.
- Self-Pay Service: Please note that vitamin D3 injections are a self-pay service not covered by insurance plans.
- Injection and Monitoring: If approved, you'll receive the injection at our office. Our trained staff will monitor you for 15 minutes post-injection to ensure no adverse reactions occur.
- Follow-Up Lab Work: Approximately three months after your injection, you'll need to have follow-up lab work done to check your vitamin D levels and determine if additional injections are necessary.
Our team takes a personalized approach to every patient's care. We'll work closely with you to develop a treatment plan that addresses your specific needs and health goals.
If you have any questions or would like to schedule an appointment to discuss vitamin D3 injections, please text our team at 713-597-4521. We look forward to helping you achieve optimal health and vitality.
