When should I book the Muscle Recovery IV — before or after my workout?

After. The 2-24 hour window post-workout is the peak benefit zone — early enough to reduce DOMS before it peaks, late enough to let the initial inflammation signal trigger its repair response.

Can I add anti-inflammatory medication?

Yes — IV ketorolac is available as an add-on for acute soreness or joint inflammation, subject to nurse screening for NSAID contraindications.

Is it different from the Hydration drip?

Yes — the Muscle Recovery IV adds BCAAs, taurine, L-carnitine and a full electrolyte panel on top of the saline base. If you're just thirsty, Hydration is enough; if you're sore or training back-to-back days, Muscle Recovery is the right call.

Targeted post-workout: amino acids, electrolytes and anti-inflammatory support

The Muscle Recovery IV is calibrated for athletes and active travelers — riders coming off a Llanogrande loop, hikers off Pan de Azúcar or the Cerro de las Tres Cruces, jiu-jitsu and CrossFit clients in El Poblado's gyms. The formulation is a 1L saline base, full electrolyte replacement (sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium), branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs: leucine, isoleucine, valine) to support muscle protein synthesis, taurine and L-carnitine for cellular recovery, and vitamin C for connective-tissue repair. Optional add-on: IV ketorolac for acute inflammation.

Timing matters: 2-24 hours post-workout is the window

The peak benefit window for IV muscle recovery is 2-24 hours after the workout — early enough to reduce delayed-onset muscle soreness (DOMS) before it peaks at 24-48 hours, late enough that initial inflammation has done its protective job. For competitive athletes prepping for an event, a recovery drip the night before plus a hydration drip the morning of is a common protocol.

Difference from the Hydration drip — when each is the right pick

Hydration is the right pick when the only problem is fluid loss (a hot ride, a long hike, a day in the sun). Muscle Recovery is the right pick when you're sore, training hard for consecutive days, or pushing into an event week. The amino acid and electrolyte loading is what separates the two.

What's in the drip

Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), L-glutamine, L-carnitine, magnesium, electrolytes, and 1L of saline. Built for muscle repair, soreness reduction, and sustained endurance.

Best for

Athletes training in Medellín, padel and CrossFit travelers, hikers tackling Cerro de las 3 Cruces or El Peñón de Guatapé, and digital nomads keeping a heavy gym schedule.
