Having a great night out with friends is a great way to relieve some stress and bond with your buddies. When you wake up the next morning with a dehydration headache, nausea, and a stomach ache, you need relief fast. You need a banana bag. Intravenous hangover relief might be just what you're looking for. 

What is a Banana Bag?

A distinctive yellow color, a banana bag is an IV filled with hydration, vitamins, and minerals, including magnesium sulfate, folic acid, and thiamine. The addition of B vitamins makes the IV fluid yellow, which is why it’s called a “banana bag.” Our experts at Pure IV Utah will customize an IV cocktail specifically targeting your symptoms. Our healthcare professionals will come to your home at your convenience and administer your rehydration solution IV, bringing you relief from all your symptoms. 

Banana Bag FAQs

What's in a Banana Bag?

What is in an IV drip for dehydration? Depending on the patient's needs, there are different banana bag formulas. Banana bag contents usually include folic acid, magnesium sulfate, thiamine, and multivitamins in addition to ultra-hydrating saline. A typical banana bag infusion has 100mg of thiamine, an essential B vitamin that alleviates hangover symptoms such as brain fog. Together with thiamine, magnesium sulfate restores the balance of your brain and heart. Folic acid reduces mental agitation, and a powerful multivitamin boosts the immune system.

Why Isn’t a Multivitamin Pill Enough?

The body digests and absorbs vitamins and fluids far more slowly when you take them orally instead of intravenously. This is why we don’t offer a banana bag drink or an oral IV hydrating fluid - it needs to go into your bloodstream. The body has less sodium and glucose to absorb vitamins and nutrients when it is hungover, deficient in vitamins and electrolytes, or dehydrated. Symptoms such as nausea, which results in dehydration or illness, may also prevent you from rehydrating or eating the right foods so you can recover.

How to Get Rid of a Hangover Fast with a Banana Bag

Banana bag IV fluids provide your body with healthy vitamins and minerals, like magnesium sulfate and thiamine, as well as hydration. You can bypass the digestive system entirely so your body can absorb all the good stuff more easily. If you live in the Salt Lake City area, Pure IV Utah can deliver a banana bag to your home or hotel room. Rehydrate while relaxing with the banana bag IV cocktail.

Do I Need a Banana Bag?

If you suffer from dehydration, electrolyte deficiencies, nausea, morning sickness, a hangover, or any other illness, banana bags can help regain your strength. Banana bags can provide your body with vital vitamins and fluids more quickly and efficiently than oral consumption.

Banana Bags in Nursing: What Are They?

An IV banana bag used in nursing, whether at home or in the hospital, delivers medications, hydration, vitamins, and supplements directly into the bloodstream through an IV cannula inserted directly into a vein. Medical professionals can control the delivery of electrolytes essential to their patients.

How Do IVs Work?

Designed for fast treatment of symptoms and ailments, IVs are a direct route to the bloodstream of the patient. Nutrition and medications can be delivered quickly by bypassing the digestive system.
