Hangover IV Drip at Home in Miami and Broward

Hangover IV or an Electrolyte Packet?

An electrolyte packet, a few glasses of water and a real breakfast are often enough after one late night, as long as you can keep water down. You can also use a packet and the drip on the same day. Water and the drip work together, which is why we ask clients to drink some before we arrive.

The Hangover IV does what a packet cannot. The fluid goes straight into a vein, so your stomach does not have to absorb it. Every bag carries ondansetron for nausea, and you have a nurse with you from start to finish.

The drip makes the most sense after several days of heat, late nights and drinking, like five nights out in a row or six days in the Bahamas. If you are unsure, try the packet first. If you still feel rough an hour later, text us and we will send a nurse.

Hangover IV, Saline Hydration IV or Food Poisoning Fix IV: Which to Book

In a Miami summer, a hangover and too much sun feel almost the same. Either one can leave you dizzy when you stand up, drained and a little queasy, usually with a headache. It is often both, because the day of drinking was also the day on the boat. When you call, we ask a few quick questions. Were you drinking last night? Were you out in the sun, on the water or training hard? Do you have a headache? How do you feel right now?

If it is mostly last night's drinking, book the Hangover IV. If it was mostly a long day in the heat, the Saline Hydration IV is usually enough. It is $199 and comes with one vitamin of your choice. If it is a stomach bug or something you ate, book the Food Poisoning Fix IV. It is $249 and includes 1000ml of saline, a mineral and electrolyte blend, B vitamins and ondansetron. If it is a mix, we help you pick the drip for whatever is bothering you most.

Hangover IV Before a Night Out

A lot of people do not realize they can book the drip the afternoon before a big night instead of the morning after. Our founder usually does it that way. Book it a few hours before you go out. For a dinner reservation, that means after lunch. You will be finished long before you start getting ready. Choose the Saline Hydration IV if you mostly want fluids, or the Hangover IV if you want the fuller mix of vitamins and minerals.

Booking before a night out is most popular with visitors from New York and Los Angeles. They usually do it on event weekends, when they know they will keep up an intense pace for three or four days. The point is to start the night hydrated. The drip will not change how your body handles alcohol, so the usual rules about pacing yourself and not driving still apply. If you are not planning to drink much, you can skip it.

Hangover IVs for Groups, Bachelorettes and Weddings

Wedding parties, bachelorettes and birthday groups book a lot of our hangover drips, at home, on boats and in hotel suites. We have had up to fifteen people on drips at the same time. Tell us how many people there are and when everyone needs to be done, and we work out the number of nurses from there. Eleven people who all need to finish in just over an hour would get four or five nurses. The same eleven spread over four hours would get two.

Everyone gets their own bag, and each person can pick a different drip. We can set up during hair and makeup, as long as your arm is free. Each guest does the short telehealth exam at their first appointment of the year. If someone in the group is a member, the friends who book with them pay half too. We ask for at least 8 hours of notice to cancel a booking for two or more people.

Hangover IV at Home: How to Prepare and What Comes After

Before the nurse arrives, drink a glass or two of water if you can keep it down. It plumps the veins and makes the line easier to place. Wear a short sleeved top or one with sleeves that roll up easily. Have a comfortable spot ready where you can sit back for the whole drip.

Afterwards, keep sipping water through the day, eat something light when you feel ready, and rest if you can. The nurse goes over aftercare with you before leaving. If a question comes up later, call or text us.
