Questions to ask about regenerative IV therapy

Start by asking exactly what is being discussed, not simply whether it is called “regenerative therapy.” What would be involved:

• product,
• cell source,
• preparation,
• dose and route,
• and intended purpose?

Ask whether the conversation concerns an approved medical treatment, an investigational approach, or a wellness claim, and request documentation you can review. In South Lamar and elsewhere in Austin, terminology can sound familiar while products differ substantially.

A consultation should clarify whether any treatment is actually offered, rather than assuming that an educational discussion means you are eligible or that treatment is recommended.

Ask what reliable human evidence supports the specific product and use being discussed:

• ?Which studies involved the same product, route, and condition, and what were their limitations?
• ?Are results preliminary, mixed, or not established?
• ?Do claims rely mainly on laboratory research, testimonials, or unrelated studies?
• ?How is the product manufactured, tested for contamination or misidentification, stored, and tracked?

Be cautious of statements implying FDA approval or proven results; ask what authorization or regulatory pathway applies to this exact product and setting.

A responsible conversation should include risks, not just potential benefits. Ask about immediate and longer-term risks, including:

• infection,
• immune reactions,
• clotting or other procedure-related concerns,
• and what is known or unknown for the proposed product.

Ask who would determine whether the discussion is appropriate for you, what medical history, medications, allergies, pregnancy status, or prior treatments matter, and what alternatives, including no treatment, could be considered. Request clear instructions for warning symptoms, who to contact, and whether urgent or routine follow-up would be available after any intervention.

Before deciding, ask for the complete written plan and its practical boundaries:

• what is included in the consultation,
• what would require separate consent,
• and what costs or outside referrals might arise, without treating a quoted fee as evidence of value.

Ask how your privacy and records would be handled and whether you may take time to review information or seek a second opinion.
