Lactated Ringers - 1L

A lactated solution, commonly referred to as Lactated Ringer's solution, is a type of intravenous (IV) fluid that contains a balanced mix of electrolytes to closely mimic the body's natural fluid composition. The fluid contains a mix of essential electrolytes—sodium, potassium, calcium, and lactate—to quickly rehydrate your body, restore electrolyte balance, and support healthy organ function. This therapy is commonly used for dehydration, recovery from illness, or post-surgery care.

Please note that this solution does not have any added vitamins or minerals like our IV therapies do.

Why Choose Lactated Ringer’s IV Therapy?

People may choose Lactated Ringer’s IV therapy for several reasons:

Rapid Rehydration: It's effective for quickly replenishing fluids, especially after intense exercise, illness, or dehydration from heat.
Electrolyte Replenishment: The balanced mix of electrolytes helps restore minerals lost through sweating, vomiting, or diarrhea, supporting overall body function.
Support During Illness: It can aid in recovery from conditions that cause dehydration or electrolyte imbalances, such as stomach viruses or fever.
Surgical Recovery: It’s commonly used to maintain hydration and balance body chemistry during and after surgical procedures.
Acid-Base Balance: People who are at risk of acidosis, such as those with severe infections or trauma, may benefit from its buffering properties to stabilize pH levels.
Athletic Recovery: Some athletes use this therapy to recover faster after intense physical activity by efficiently restoring fluids and electrolytes.

Note: This solution does not include any added vitamins or minerals. If you’re looking for an additional nutrient boost, consider one of our other IV bags from the menu, specially formulated with extra vitamins and minerals to support your wellness needs.

FAQ

What are the benefits of Lactated Ringers Solution?

Immediate Effects:

Hydration: The most immediate effect is rehydration. You will feel more hydrated and experience a reduction in symptoms like dry mouth, fatigue, or dizziness.
Electrolyte Balance: The electrolytes in the solution (sodium, potassium, calcium) begin to restore balance, helping stabilize muscle function and prevent cramps or weakness.
Improved Blood Pressure: For individuals who are dehydrated, IV therapy helps restore blood volume, which can improve blood pressure levels and reduce symptoms like lightheadedness.
Enhanced Energy Levels: As fluid and electrolytes are restored, many people feel a quick boost in energy and alertness.

Short-Term Effects:

Reduction in Dehydration Symptoms: Within a few hours, symptoms like headaches, dizziness, and fatigue associated with dehydration typically begin to subside.
Improved Physical Performance: Athletes or those recovering from physical exertion may feel improved muscle function and reduced soreness as electrolytes and fluids are replenished.
Restored pH Balance: The sodium lactate in the solution helps buffer acids in the body, which can reduce the risk of acidosis and improve overall balance.
Immediate Relief for Illness: For those recovering from illness (e.g., stomach virus or fever), the therapy provides immediate relief from dehydration, allowing the body to recover more effectively.

Long-Term Effects:

Improved Overall Wellness: Regular use of Lactated Ringer’s IV therapy may support sustained hydration and electrolyte balance, especially for those prone to dehydration or electrolyte imbalances due to certain conditions.
Faster Recovery: For individuals undergoing surgery, or recovering from intense physical activity or illness, the long-term effect may be faster recovery times and better overall recovery outcomes.
Enhanced Organ Function: By maintaining proper hydration and electrolyte balance, the body’s organs (particularly kidneys, heart, and muscles) function more efficiently over time.
Prevention of Chronic Dehydration: If used regularly, Lactated Ringer’s IV therapy can help prevent chronic dehydration, which can lead to issues like kidney stones, urinary tract infections, or prolonged fatigue.

How Often Should I Get The Rehydrate IV Drip?

For Hydration and Electrolyte Support (e.g., Lactated Ringer’s):

As needed: This is commonly used to address dehydration, recovery from illness, or after intense physical activity. The frequency will depend on how quickly your body depletes fluids and electrolytes.
Typically 1-2 times per week: For general wellness or recovery, a session every week or two may be beneficial, especially if you're experiencing chronic dehydration or stress from exercise.

For Boosting Vitamins and Nutrients (e.g., vitamin infusions):

Weekly or Monthly: For people seeking to maintain optimal vitamin levels or boost their immunity, IV therapy with added nutrients (like vitamins B12, C, or glutathione) may be recommended weekly or monthly depending on the individual's health goals.

For Specific Conditions (e.g., recovery from surgery, chronic fatigue, etc.):

As prescribed by a healthcare provider: If you're receiving IV therapy to treat a specific medical condition, the frequency will be determined by your healthcare provider based on your progress and needs.

For Athletic Recovery:

After intense physical activity or competitions: Athletes may choose IV therapy following particularly strenuous workouts or events, with some opting for post-event recovery sessions once or twice a week.
