Frequently Asked Questions
How long before drinking should I get the IV?▾
You can receive the IV the day before or on the day of your event. Earlier sessions give the nutrients more time to work; a same-day appointment still delivers hydration and electrolyte support. Your clinician will recommend timing based on the event length and your intake details.
What's in a preventive hangover IV?▾
Preventive formulas typically include IV saline (hydration base), electrolytes (sodium, potassium, magnesium), B-vitamins for energy and liver support, and often an anti-nausea medication. Custom add-ons like glutathione (antioxidant) or vitamin C are available. Your intake call will confirm which components suit your health profile.
Can I drink alcohol the same day?▾
Yes, that's the design. You receive the IV, then head to your event. The nutrients and hydration remain active in your bloodstream and tissue, supporting your body throughout alcohol consumption. Staying hydrated with water during the event amplifies the benefit.
Is preventive IV better than waiting until morning after?▾
Both have value, but preventive treatment starts with your body fully resourced, meaning alcohol's dehydrating effect begins from a higher baseline. Morning-after IVs reverse damage already done. Many people use preventive IVs for major events and recovery IVs for the morning after, depending on the situation.
How is this different from just drinking water before going out?▾
Oral water doesn't deliver electrolytes at the same concentration or speed as IV saline. Your IV therapy provides balanced electrolytes, vitamins, and minerals directly into the bloodstream; absorption and effect are immediate and complete, whereas oral hydration alone doesn't replace mineral loss or support liver function under alcohol stress.
