Scope of Practice
San Francisco regulates functional medicine services under its existing medical practice framework. Licensed physicians (MDs and DOs) and dentists have full authority to provide functional medicine treatments, including IV therapy and peptide prescribing, within their scope. Nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and registered nurses can also offer functional medicine services under defined supervision requirements.
San Francisco is currently a restricted practice state for nurse practitioners, though legislation is transitioning toward broader NP authority. Traditionally, NPs have needed standardized procedures with a supervising physician for clinical services including IV therapy administration and peptide prescribing. NPs should verify current requirements with the California Board of Registered Nursing.
Registered nurses in San Francisco may administer IV therapy, vitamin infusions, and other functional medicine treatments under the direct supervision and specific order of a licensed physician or, in some cases, a nurse practitioner. All practitioners should complete accredited functional medicine training — like Empire Medical Training's CME-certified programs — and ensure compliance with San Francisco regulations before offering services.
