PICO IV CBD THERAPY

What Is PICO IV CBD Therapy?

PICO IV CBD Therapy is a physician-guided intravenous cannabidiol (CBD) infusion designed for high-performers seeking targeted nervous system support, stress modulation, and pain relief in a medically supervised clinical setting.

How PICO IV CBD May Support You

Current evidence and clinical experience suggest that CBD influences the body’s endocannabinoid system, which plays a role in pain modulation, inflammation, stress response, and sleep-wake regulation. Because PICO IV is delivered intravenously, patients often experience faster onset of effects compared with oral CBD.

Supporting Chronic Pain and Inflammation

CBD may modulate inflammatory signaling and pain perception pathways. For high-performers managing the physical toll of training, travel, or chronic conditions, this can mean measurable relief without the cognitive impairment of traditional pain management.

Promoting Nervous System Calm and Stress Resilience

Chronic stress dysregulates your nervous system. CBD may help address anxiety-like symptoms, fight-or-flight overload, and emotional overwhelm. This isn’t about feeling sedated. It’s about recalibrating so you can lead with clarity instead of operating from a place of constant activation.

Enhancing Sleep Quality

By addressing underlying contributors like pain, stress, and nervous system hyperactivity, CBD may improve sleep architecture. Better sleep means better recovery, sharper cognition, and sustained performance.

Supporting Cognitive Clarity and Focus

When chronic stress or discomfort disrupts your mental bandwidth, CBD may help restore the focus and processing speed your work demands

Important Note

Results vary significantly from person to person. PICO IV CBD therapy is not a cure or guaranteed outcome for any condition. Treatment decisions at Awaken IV are grounded in realistic expectations, careful screening, and a clear understanding of both potential benefits and limitations.

    Important Safety and Regulatory Considerations

    You need to understand the regulatory context before proceeding.

    You need to understand the regulatory context before proceeding.

    CBD in injectable form is under active review by federal regulators. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has issued a warning letter to Pico IV Inc. related to how its intravenous CBD product has been marketed under federal law. The agency emphasized that injectable products are especially concerning because anything delivered directly into the bloodstream bypasses many of the body’s natural defenses and can pose risks of serious or life-threatening harm if contaminated, improperly formulated, or misused.

    The FDA has also stated that, outside of one prescription CBD product approved for specific seizure disorders, it has not approved CBD products for the diagnosis, treatment, cure, or prevention of disease. Marketing CBD products (especially injectable forms) with disease claims is a focus of ongoing enforcement.

    Awaken IV’s approach is built around:

    Awaken IV’s approach is built around:
  • Treating PICO IV CBD as an advanced, experimental wellness tool rather than an FDA-approved treatment for any specific disease
  • Providing full informed consent that discloses regulatory status, known and unknown risks, alternatives, and the fact that outcomes cannot be guaranteed
  • Maintaining strict sterile technique, appropriate dosing protocols, vital sign monitoring, and immediate access to trained medical personnel during every infusion
  • Continually reviewing FDA, state, and professional society guidance and being prepared to modify, limit, or discontinue offerings if recommendations change
  • PICO IV CBD therapy is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease and should not be considered a substitute for the care of your primary physician or specialist.

    We don’t hide from these facts. We lead with them. Because high-performers deserve complete transparency, not marketing spin.

    Our Process for Determining if You Are a Candidate for PICO IV CBD Therapy

    At Awaken IV, we follow a careful, medically guided evaluation process to ensure every treatment is safe, effective, and customized to your goals.

  • Pre-Visit Screening and Consultation Before scheduling an infusion, you complete detailed health history and medication questionnaires. You meet virtually or in person with a medical provider to determine whether CBD IV therapy is appropriate or recommended at all. In some cases, your provider may suggest alternative or foundational therapies instead of, or prior to, PICO IV.
  • Pre-Visit Screening and Consultation
  • Personalized Plan and Informed Consent If you are a candidate, your provider reviews the proposed dosing strategy, possible sensations, potential benefits and risks, interactions, and aftercare. We discuss what is known and unknown about intravenous CBD. You are encouraged to ask questions, involve family or care team members if desired, and only proceed once you feel fully informed and comfortable.
  • Personalized Plan and Informed Consent
  • Infusion Day Experience On infusion day, you are welcomed into a quiet, supportive treatment room designed for relaxation and nervous system regulation. After IV access is obtained, your infusion is started at a carefully titrated rate while staff monitor your vital signs, comfort level, and any emerging side effects throughout the session.
  • Infusion Day Experience
  • Post-Infusion Monitoring and Integration You remain on site for a brief observation period after the infusion. You receive clear guidance on hydration, activity, driving, and what to watch for over the next 24-48 hours. Follow-up may include check-ins about sleep, pain patterns, mood, and function, as well as discussion of how CBD IV fits into your broader wellness and medical plan.
  • Post-Infusion Monitoring and Integration

    PICO IV CBD Therapy FAQs

    Will PICO IV CBD make me feel “high”?

    Will PICO IV CBD make me feel “high”?

    CBD is non-intoxicating and does not produce the classic “high” associated with THC. Many patients report feeling more relaxed, grounded, or occasionally drowsy after an infusion. Individual responses vary, and your dose and infusion rate are tailored to safety and comfort

    Is this treatment FDA-approved?

    Is this treatment FDA-approved?

    The only FDA-approved CBD medication is a prescription oral product for specific seizure disorders, not for IV use. PICO IV CBD therapy is not FDA-approved for any indication and should be considered an off-label, experimental wellness-oriented use provided in a medical setting with full informed consent.

    Is PICO IV CBD therapy legal?

    Is PICO IV CBD therapy legal?

    PICO IV is produced from federally legal hemp-derived CBD and is sold only to licensed medical practices and IV clinics. However, the FDA has raised concerns about how injectable CBD products are marketed and about unapproved therapeutic claims, so the regulatory landscape is evolving and must be navigated carefully by clinics.

    What are the possible side effects?

    What are the possible side effects?

    Reported side effects of CBD, especially at higher doses, can include drowsiness, fatigue, dry mouth, lightheadedness, changes in appetite, or mild digestive upset. IV administration can also very rarely trigger infusion-related reactions or changes in blood pressure or heart rate. The risk of serious complications is minimized through sterile technique, screening, monitoring, and immediate access to medical staff, but no IV therapy is risk-free.

    Can PICO IV CBD interact with my medications?

    Can PICO IV CBD interact with my medications?

    Yes. CBD is known to interact with certain medications, especially those processed by liver enzymes such as the cytochrome P450 system, including some blood thinners, anti-seizure medications, and psychiatric drugs. A thorough medication review and, when needed, communication with your prescribing providers are required befo

    How many treatments will I need and how often?

    How many treatments will I need and how often?

    Frequency is highly individualized and depends on your goals, underlying conditions, and how you respond to initial infusions. Some patients explore a short series of closely spaced sessions. Others use CBD IV therapy sparingly for specific flare-ups or high-stress periods, always under guidance.

    Can I combine PICO IV CBD with other IV drips?

    Can I combine PICO IV CBD with other IV drips?

    In some cases, CBD infusions can be sequenced with or added to other IV therapies, but decisions about combinations, timing, and dosing are made on a case-by-case basis to protect safety and avoid over-treating. Your provider will design a plan that reflects your lab data, symptoms, and overall protocol rather than stacking multiple advanced infusions without a clear rationale.

    Can PICO IV CBD replace my existing medications or mental health care?

    Can PICO IV CBD replace my existing medications or mental health care?

    No. CBD IV therapy is not a substitute for prescribed medications, psychotherapy, or specialist care. You should never stop or change medications without working directly with your prescribing clinician. Awaken IV’s team is happy to coordinate with your existing providers to ensure that any IV therapy supports, rather than disrupts, your overall treatment plan.

    How do I find out if I am a good fit?

    How do I find out if I am a good fit?

    The first step is to schedule a consultation, during which your provider will review your history, medications, goals, and risk factors and then recommend either PICO IV CBD, an alternative therapy, or no IV treatment at all.
