Companies in Dubai and Abu Dhabi sometimes arrange on-site wellness days that include hydration or vitamin drips, especially during summer or busy reporting periods. This works only if participation is genuinely voluntary, each employee is screened privately by a licensed clinician, and health information never goes back to the employer. Tamam can pass the request to a licensed vendor who handles the clinical side.
What it typically contains
- A short menu — typically hydration, B-vitamin and immunity drips chosen by the provider.
- Individual screening — the clinician decides per person what, if anything, is suitable.
- Single-use equipment — every employee has their own cannula, line and bag.
Formulations vary by provider. The final ingredients, doses and infusion rate are decided by the licensed clinician after assessing you, and may differ from this list.
Who usually asks for it
- HR and office managers planning wellness days.
- Companies with outdoor or shift workers in summer.
- Event teams during long conferences or exhibitions.
Who should not have it, or must check with a doctor first
- Participation must be voluntary; nobody should feel pressured to have a drip.
- Each person discloses health information only to the clinician, in private.
- People with heart, kidney or other conditions may be advised against any drip.
What happens at the appointment
The office needs a private room for screening, comfortable chairs, good lighting and space for nurses' equipment. The provider decides how many nurses are needed for safe supervision.
- You send the request on WhatsApp or in the app with your address, preferred time and any health conditions.
- A licensed clinician screens you: medical history, medicines, allergies and vital signs. They can decline or refer you elsewhere.
- If suitable, a nurse places a small cannula and stays with you for the whole infusion, adjusting the rate if needed.
- The cannula is removed, the site is dressed, and you are told what to watch for afterwards.
How often do people have it?
Usually occasional events rather than a recurring benefit. Some companies pair them with health talks or screening days.
What affects the price
- Number of participants and nurses required.
- Menu offered.
- Location, building access and parking for the clinical team.
- Event length.
Tamam does not publish fixed prices for medical services. The vendor confirms the cost for your exact request before you agree to anything.
Who is allowed to give IV drips in the UAE
IV therapy is a medical procedure. In the UAE it must be given by a licensed doctor or nurse working for a licensed healthcare facility, after an assessment. In Dubai, providers are licensed by the Dubai Health Authority (DHA), or by the Dubai Healthcare City Authority for facilities in Dubai Healthcare City. In Abu Dhabi, including Al Ain, the Department of Health – Abu Dhabi (DoH) regulates providers. In Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah, private providers operate under the Ministry of Health and Prevention (MOHAP) licensing framework. You can ask the nurse for their licence details at any time.
