A side-by-side comparison of the IV drips Medellín nurses actually deliver to hungover tourists — what's in each, how fast they work, and which one fits a Provenza-recovery morning.
Medellín sits at 1,495 m (4,905 ft). At altitude your blood holds less oxygen and you dehydrate noticeably faster — most US visitors are already mildly dehydrated before the first aguardiente shot lands.
Add three hours on Provenza, salsa in Manila, and the fact that nobody drinks water at Parque Lleras, and a 'two-cocktail' night turns into a full-blown rehydration emergency by sunrise. That's the gap an IV closes — fluids, electrolytes, B-vitamins, and anti-nausea support delivered straight into your bloodstream instead of through a hostile stomach.
Our most-booked drip in Medellín. A 1L sterile saline bag loaded with B-complex (B1, B6, B12), high-dose vitamin C, magnesium, and electrolytes, plus an anti-nausea medication (ondansetron) so you can keep liquids down again.
Time to feel human: about 30 minutes from the moment the line goes in. Total session: ~45 minutes. Best for: standard 'I overdid it on Provenza' mornings where you need to function by lunch.

The classic full-spectrum vitamin reset. Same hydration backbone as the Hangover IV but with a broader vitamin profile — heavier on B5 and calcium, lighter on the anti-nausea. Best if you want a wellness reset rather than rescue.
Pick this when: you're moderately hungover but mostly want the immune + energy benefit, or when you're planning to do another late night and want to start clean.
The premium option. NAD+ is a coenzyme your cells use to produce energy and repair DNA — your body burns through it processing alcohol. A 250mg or 500mg NAD+ infusion paired with hydration is the most aggressive recovery option available.
Pick this when: you're a frequent traveler stacking late nights, recovering from a bachelor weekend, or want a longer-acting energy lift (often felt 24–48 hours).
NAD+ takes longer to administer (2–4 hours) because it must be infused slowly to avoid discomfort. Book the night before for a guaranteed morning slot.
Ondansetron (anti-nausea), ketorolac (non-narcotic anti-inflammatory for headaches), glutathione (antioxidant — supports liver clearance), extra B12 (clean energy), and Toradol-equivalent pain support. Add-ons are $8–$13 each and the nurse confirms suitability before adding them to your line.
Standard hangover, need to function today → Hangover Recovery IV. Mild-to-moderate, want a broader reset → Myers' Cocktail. Heavy night, frequent traveler, or stacking events → NAD+ Power Surge. Still not sure? Send us a WhatsApp and our team will recommend based on how you're feeling.
