What Is Hangover Rescue IV

More Than Just Hydration

A medical-grade IV formulation designed to rapidly restore hydration, flush alcohol toxins, and replenish vital nutrients depleted by alcohol consumption.

Alcohol acts as a powerful diuretic, leading to severe cellular dehydration and toxic acetaldehyde buildup. Our Hangover Rescue IV bypasses your inflamed digestive system to deliver isotonic fluids, electrolytes, B-vitamins, and optional anti-nausea medications directly into your bloodstream — providing relief that oral remedies simply cannot match.

Isotonic Fluid Therapy

Medical-grade saline or Ringer's lactate instantly restores blood volume and cellular hydration.

B-Complex Vitamin Boost

High doses of B1, B6, and B12 to combat fatigue and restore cognitive function.

Electrolyte Replenishment

Magnesium and potassium to calm muscles, reduce cramping, and fix cellular imbalance.

More Than Just Hydration
The Science

Why IV Beats Oral Intake

When hungover, your GI tract is inflamed and absorption drops to ~20%. IV therapy guarantees 100% bioavailability for immediate relief.

100% Bioavailability

Nutrients delivered directly into the bloodstream with zero waste — unlike oral supplements that lose potency through digestion.

Cellular Rehydration

Fluids enter cells immediately, reversing the cellular shrinkage that causes headaches, brain fog, and fatigue.

Metabolic Support

High-dose nutrients help liver enzymes process alcohol metabolites faster, accelerating natural detoxification.

Medical Oversight

Unlike IV bars, all RAAC infusions are medically reviewed and administered by licensed professionals under physician supervision.

FAQ

Common Questions

How quickly will I feel better?+

Most patients feel a noticeable difference within 15-30 minutes as fluids begin rehydrating cells. By the end of the 45-60 minute session, rehydration typically resolves the headache and most other symptoms.

Does the needle hurt?+

You will feel a tiny pinch during insertion, similar to a mosquito bite. Once the IV is in place, the rest of the treatment is painless and relaxing. Many patients rest or use their phones during the session.

Is IV therapy safe for hangovers?+

Yes. All IV therapies at RAAC are administered by licensed professionals under Dr. Jiang's medical supervision. We use medical-grade fluids and monitor your response throughout the treatment.

Can I use this to prevent a hangover?+

Yes, 'pre-gaming' with IV hydration before or after an event can help protect your body from the worst effects of alcohol. However, responsible drinking is always the best prevention strategy.

What is in the Hangover Rescue IV?+

Our formula includes isotonic fluids (saline or Ringer's lactate), B-complex vitamins (B1, B6, B12), magnesium, potassium, and optional add-ons like anti-nausea medication or vitamin C based on your needs.

RAAC is a medical clinic with physician oversight. All treatments are reviewed by Dr. Jiang, administered by licensed nurses, and follow strict medical protocols. We can also provide prescription medications when medically appropriate.
