It is administered weekly and used in conjunction with iron pills, it increases red blood cell count, possibly because they took blood at the ceremony, which would explain why her Helper had to hold her hand. There isn't any other visible bandages covering the place where they would of taken blood, like the inner arm. But maybe they took it from the inner thigh.
Maybe we're making an invalid assumption.
1st of all, the worst "hole" anybody ever put in my arm was for donating blood. And the one time that got botched (think axe-murder-movie amounts of blood), they didn't use as big a bandage as Bree had on.
2nd, think about blood-drawing in the context of a religious ceremony. Do we really think that someone's going to whip out the sacred hypo of Horus or whatever to draw the blood?
Of course not. They're going to use some ceremonial dagger thingy, which will make a cut, not a needle hole. That's my guess on why Bree has that bandage.
