Infusion therapy
Indication-based infusion therapy for documented iron deficiency and for severe, persistent migraine attacks — under continuous medical supervision.
Infusion therapy supplements oral therapy when it is not sufficiently effective, not tolerated, or not practical (e.g. due to absorption disorders). The prerequisite is always a medical indication based on history and findings.
Also available as an online consultation. You can have the initial consultation either at the practice or by video from home — you choose when booking. Whether an in-person examination is needed is something we discuss together.

Not every agent can be absorbed sufficiently via tablets — for example with absorption disorders in the gut, with intolerances, or when a deficiency needs to be corrected quickly. An infusion can then make sense because the agent is delivered directly via the vein.
A medical indication always comes first. We treat when iron deficiency is confirmed by laboratory analysis or a severe persistent migraine attack (status migrainosus) is present. The infusion runs at the practice under medical supervision, 45 to 90 minutes depending on the protocol.
We deliberately avoid blanket "wellness", "booster" and build-up infusions: if levels are normal, topping up usually brings no benefit. This keeps the therapy meaningful and transparent.
Indications and protocols
- Iron infusion (iron carboxymaltose) for documented iron deficiency with or without anaemia, when oral substitution is insufficient or not tolerated
- Acute infusion for status migrainosus — magnesium, antiemetics, optionally lidocaine — hospital-replacing, medically supervised
- Vitamin D substitution for documented severe deficiency (oral or i.m.)
At a glance
- Always with a medical indication, after lab work
- Iron infusion and acute migraine treatment
- Medically supervised, 45–90 minutes
- No blanket wellness/booster infusions
Procedure flow
- 1First consultation with history, review of findings, indication assessment
- 2Preceding laboratory diagnostics where the findings carry the indication
- 3Informed-consent talk on benefits, risks and alternatives
- 4Performance at the practice under medical supervision — duration 45 – 90 minutes depending on protocol
- 5Follow-up and therapy adjustment based on clinical picture and laboratory course
Important notes
- Indication and benefit are determined individually — no blanket "wellness" or "booster" infusions.
- Build-up, vitamin and micronutrient infusions without a documented deficiency are not part of what is offered.
- Possible side effects are discussed during the informed-consent talk (e.g. allergic reactions, vein irritation, flush).
- Accompanying measures such as balanced nutrition, sleep and exercise remain the foundation of any therapy.

Private practice (Wahlarzt). There are no statutory insurance contracts. You receive an invoice and pay it directly. If you are insured in Austria, you may submit it to your insurer (ÖGK, SVS, BVAEB, KFA) for partial reimbursement. If you are insured abroad, the invoice is issued in your name for your own insurer or travel policy — whether and how much is refunded is decided there.
Laboratory. Blood is drawn at the practice and analysed by a partner laboratory in Tyrol. For visitors from abroad the laboratory work is a private service and is invoiced as such, as are the consultation and the medical interpretation of the results, which you receive as a written letter.
