Dehydration goes beyond simple thirst. When dehydration persists, it can lead to serious health issues. While drinking water can address mild dehydration, chronic or illness-induced dehydration requires a stronger solution.
At Vida-Flo, our IV fluids for dehydration offer an efficient way to recover and replenish the body's fluid balance. This therapy quickly restores fluid levels directly through the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system.

Dehydration has two main forms: acute and chronic, each defined by duration and severity. Both types affect the body differently and require specific treatment approaches.
Acute dehydration is a rapid and severe loss of fluids, often due to vomiting, diarrhea, excessive sweating, or fever. It is common in cases of the stomach flu and food poisoning. If not addressed promptly, this type of dehydration can disrupt your body's normal functions and lead to serious health risks. Symptoms include intense thirst, dry mouth, dark urine, and, in extreme cases, dizziness or even shock.
Unlike acute dehydration, chronic dehydration develops slowly over time due to not drinking enough fluids regularly. It may not be as immediate or obvious, but it's just as harmful to your long-term health. Signs of chronic dehydration can include:
If not addressed, chronic dehydration can lead to severe health problems like kidney stones and urinary tract infections.
Identifying the underlying causes of your dehydration is the first step in rehydration treatment. Chronic dehydration can result from various medical conditions, dietary habits, and daily activities that affect the body's fluid balance. These factors impact how well the body retains and uses water.
Two of the most debilitating symptoms of Celiac are vomiting and chronic diarrhea. Typically, fluids and electrolytes are replaced with water and food, but those who suffer from chronic vomiting and diarrhea cannot replace them quickly enough, leading to chronic dehydration.
People suffering from gluten intolerance commonly experience diarrhea or constipation, which can cause major health concerns, such as loss of electrolytes, dehydration, and fatigue. IV hydration is medically proven to help relieve the effects of these symptoms.
If you have not already, always check the side effects associated with your prescription. Many medications are diuretics, which can increase urination or cause diarrhea and vomiting, all of which increase your risk for dehydration. Allergy and blood pressure medications are two common examples.
Estrogen and progesterone are hormones that influence the hydration level in your body. During PMS, the levels of these hormones fluctuate and can cause monthly dehydration.
Why do hangovers happen? Alcohol is a diuretic and drinking it disrupts the regulation of fluid balance in the body, leading to frequent urination and rapid fluid loss. This leads to dehydration, which is the main cause of malaise due to hangovers.
Anxiety and prolonged stress cause the adrenal glands to release stress hormones. Over time, chronic stress can lead to adrenal fatigue. The adrenals produce aldosterone, a hormone that regulates fluid and electrolyte levels. Adrenal fatigue reduces Aldosterone production, leading to dehydration and low electrolyte levels.
These GI conditions, ranging from mild to severe, come with symptoms like nausea and chronic diarrhea, which can lead to dehydration. Individuals with gastrointestinal issues often resort to elimination diets to avoid trigger foods. However, dehydration can worsen without adequate fluid intake from fluid-rich foods.
Pregnant women can benefit from Vida-Flo IV therapy for several reasons. Early pregnancy can cause morning sickness, which often includes vomiting, nausea, and dehydration. As pregnancy progresses, changes in the body increase fluid requirements, and intravenous hydration can help meet these needs effectively. Before receiving therapy, pregnant patients must obtain approval from their doctor, as Vida-Flo prioritizes the safety of both mother and baby. Each location reserves the right to assess whether to provide treatment during pregnancy.
As the body ages, it becomes less efficient at conserving water, and our sense of thirst diminishes. This combination makes it easier to become dehydrated and more difficult to recognize when our fluid levels are low. A consistent regimen of IV hydration therapy can help mitigate these challenges, providing a proactive approach to hydration and reducing the risk of age-related health issues.
The body relies on a steady supply of fluids to regulate temperature, remove waste, and ensure that all organs operate effectively. When your body lacks adequate hydration over an extended period, it struggles to perform essential functions, which can result in several medical issues.

IV therapy works by using an intravenous (IV) fluid drip to deliver saline solution through a small catheter and tubing directly into the bloodstream. This saline solution may also include medications and vitamin supplements tailored to the individual patient.
During your therapy session, a medical professional will insert an IV line attached to a bag of saline solution. This bag is hung above the patient's head, using gravity to regulate the flow of fluids into the bloodstream. Compared to a syringe or other forced technique, gravity allows for a gradual introduction of fluids.
While the time frame of a single treatment varies from person to person, a session typically lasts 30 – 45 minutes. There are exceptions to this timeframe, such as with our NAD IV treatments, which generally take 1 to 2 hours per session.
IV drip therapy is highly effective in delivering nutrients, vitamins, and fluids directly to your bloodstream. Unlike oral supplements, this method bypasses the digestive system, allowing your body to absorb the maximum amount of nutrients without any loss during digestion. As a result, vitamins and nutrients are made immediately available to your cells, accelerating the benefits.
At Vida-Flo, we offer a variety of specialized IV blends designed to meet specific health goals. We also provide the option of custom-blended IV treatments to target your individual needs.
The duration of hydration therapy's benefits can vary depending on individual health factors and lifestyle choices. Some of our treatments, such as medications, provide immediate (but shorter-term) results. Our vitamin solutions are processed over a longer period, offering longer-lasting benefits.
Maintaining a regular schedule of treatments can help extend these benefits, supporting sustained hydration and improved health over time.
