Hangover Relief IV

Quick Intro

VEI Clinic Apgujeong is an English-friendly internal-medicine clinic in Gangnam providing same-day IV therapy with physician oversight.

What Is a “Hangover Relief IV”?

A supportive, clinic-based IV aimed at rehydration and symptom relief after alcohol use. Following a brief medical check, the doctor may recommend:

• Fluids + electrolytes to restore balance
• Adjunct vitamins/minerals (case-by-case)
• Symptom-targeted medications (e.g., for nausea or headache) only if clinically appropriate

Who It May Help

• Headache, fatigue, dizziness related to dehydration after a night out
• Nausea and poor oral intake
• Jet-lagged travelers who also drank and feel run-down
• People with busy schedules who need same-day supportive care with clear English guidance

Safety First (Important)

A Hangover Relief IV is supportive, not a cure. Seek urgent/emergency care instead of an IV if you have confusion, fainting, seizures, black or bloody vomit/stool, severe chest/abdominal pain, or you suspect alcohol poisoning.

Tell the doctor if you:

• Are pregnant/breastfeeding
• Have kidney, heart, or liver conditions, uncontrolled hypertension, or arrhythmias
• Have G6PD deficiency or significant drug allergies
• Take diuretics/anticoagulants or have recently had major surgery

Possible mild effects: brief chill/flush, metallic taste, small bruise at the IV site. Seek care if you develop persistent dizziness, chest pain, or breathing difficulty.

Visit Flow (Typically 60–90 Minutes)

• Check-in & history → symptoms, medications, allergies, last alcohol intake.
• Focused exam → vitals; point-of-care tests if needed.
• Plan & consent → candidacy confirmed, IV components selected, clear pricing.
• IV session → 30–60 minutes in a comfortable room with monitoring.
• Discharge guidance → simple aftercare instructions in English; prescriptions if indicated.

Aftercare Tips

• Hydrate with water or oral rehydration solution for the next 24 hours.
• Light meals (bananas, broth, toast, eggs) as tolerated.
• Rest and avoid further alcohol until fully recovered.
• Follow up if symptoms persist, you have repeated vomiting, or you have underlying conditions.

What to Expect (Realistic Outcomes)

• Many people feel steadier and clearer as hydration improves over hours to the next day.
• Response varies by sleep, nutrition, baseline health, and the amount of alcohol.
• Best results come with rest, hydration, and balanced meals.

What to Bring

• Medication list & allergies
• Symptom timeline (when it started, what worsens/helps)
• Any recent test results (if available)
