With the hot summer months coming up, there is an increased risk of dehydration, especially if you are elderly or spend lots of time outside in the heat.
This article will discuss what is in a Dehydration IV, how it’s helpful, and how at-home IV treatments work/why it’s better than going to a clinic.
What is in a dehydration IV?
Drip Hydration’s dehydration IV bags contain IV fluids and electrolytes. Both of these components work to rehydrate your body.
There are two types of IV fluids available: crystalloid solutions and colloids.
Crystalloid solutions are made up of tiny dissolved molecules that can pass easily through your bloodstream and into your tissues and cells. These are the most common type of IV fluid, and they are used for aggressive dehydration treatment.
Colloids usually stay in your blood vessels because they are large molecules that cannot easily penetrate cell membranes.
Electrolytes maintain the balance of fluids inside and outside of your cells. Electrolyte imbalances can cause dehydration, so keeping your fluid levels balanced is essential.
How is a dehydration IV helpful?
Treating dehydration with an IV drip is more effective than drinking water and drinks that contain electrolytes because the contents of the IV bag are delivered directly into your bloodstream.
