The quick answer

What does the Kickstart IV do?

The Kickstart IV is built for the days you are running on empty. A 1L infusion carries a full B-complex, a curated amino acid blend, and proline straight into your bloodstream, bypassing the gut so the nutrients reach your cells fast. It is a supportive wellness drip for an energy and metabolism reset, not a treatment for any medical condition. Every session is reviewed by a board-certified physician and given by licensed staff at our Joint Commission-accredited clinic in Surfside, or by mobile visit across South Florida.

The formula

What goes into a Kickstart drip

Four parts work together: B vitamins to convert food into usable energy, amino acids to fuel cellular function and repair, proline for collagen and connective tissue, all carried in a full liter of hydration.

Energy cofactors

Full B-Complex

B1, B2, B3, B5, and B6, the cofactors your cells use in the Krebs cycle to turn food into usable energy and to support neurotransmitter synthesis for focus and mood.

Building blocks

Amino Acid Blend

A curated blend of essential amino acids that fuel cellular energy production, support muscle function, and supply the building blocks behind recovery and repair.

Structure

Proline

An amino acid central to collagen synthesis, supporting the skin, cartilage, tendons, and connective tissue that keep you resilient through demanding stretches.

Hydration

1L Saline Base

A full liter of fluid delivered alongside the nutrients, correcting the dehydration that often compounds fatigue and improving how well your cells take up the rest of the drip.

Every Kickstart formula is reviewed and approved by a board-certified physician before a line is started. Ingredients are pharmaceutical-grade nutrients that occur naturally in the body. This is supportive wellness therapy, not a substitute for diagnosis or treatment of a medical condition.

What it supports

Why patients reach for a Kickstart

Real fatigue is rarely just about sleep. When your body is low on B vitamins, amino acids, and proline, your cells struggle to produce energy efficiently, no matter how much coffee you drink. The Kickstart addresses that at the source.

Fights fatigue fast

Energy-producing cofactors go straight into the bloodstream, bypassing digestion. Many patients feel a noticeable shift within 20 to 30 minutes, with no stimulant and no crash afterward.

Sharper mental clarity

B vitamins are central to neurotransmitter synthesis, which supports focus, steadier mood, and the kind of clarity that makes a real difference across a long day.

Skin and joint support

Proline is a key precursor to collagen, the structural protein that keeps skin firm, joints mobile, and connective tissue resilient over time.

Metabolic function

The amino acid blend supports the pathways that convert nutrients into energy, helping your body recover from exertion and demanding stretches more effectively.

Better than a pill

Oral supplements lose a meaningful share of their potency in digestion. An IV delivers the same nutrients at close to full bioavailability, reaching your cells directly.

Hydration included

The full liter of saline rehydrates you while the nutrients infuse, addressing the dehydration that quietly worsens fatigue and brain fog.

When a reset helps

The moments a Kickstart is made for

This is a jumpstart drip, useful at the points where your tank is low and you need to be back at full. It is honest, supportive wellness care, not a cure for an underlying problem.

The Monday reset

After a heavy weekend or a draining week, a Kickstart helps you start the next stretch closer to full instead of dragging through the first few days.

After travel

Long flights, time-zone changes, and dehydration leave you depleted. Many patients book a Kickstart in the days after landing to shorten the slump.

Once illness has passed

When a cold or stomach bug is behind you but the fatigue lingers, a Kickstart supports the rebound. It does not treat the illness itself.

Starting a wellness push

At the front of a new training block or a focused health stretch, a Kickstart is a clean way to begin, paired with the basics that actually move the needle.

A demanding schedule

Professionals pushing through back-to-back days use the Kickstart to steady their energy without the jitter and crash of stimulants.

Athletic recovery

In a hard training cycle, the amino acid blend and hydration support the cellular side of bouncing back between sessions.

Simple pricing

Kickstart IV cost

A single Kickstart session starts at $250 in-clinic at our Surfside lounge, with complimentary red light therapy included. A mobile visit brings the same drip to you across South Florida.

Your session

What to expect, start to finish

Medical intake

A brief evaluation by our clinical team, with physician sign-off, confirms the Kickstart fits your health profile and goals. Every IV at TrufaMED is physician-ordered.

Comfortable setup

Settle into our private IV lounge. A registered nurse places a small line, usually quick and nearly painless, and starts the drip.

The infusion

The Kickstart runs over about 45 to 60 minutes while you relax, read, or decompress, with complimentary red light therapy alongside in-clinic. Many patients feel a lift before it ends.

Post-infusion check

The team reviews how you feel and removes the line. Most patients notice improved energy and clarity over the hours after their session.

Why an IV

Why energy starts at the cellular level

True fatigue is rarely solved by another cup of coffee. When your body is low on amino acids, B vitamins, and structural proteins like proline, your cells cannot produce energy efficiently. The Kickstart IV addresses this at the source by delivering bioavailable nutrients directly into the bloodstream, where they reach your cells without being filtered through digestion.

Amino acids serve as the building blocks for the neurotransmitters, hormones, and enzymes that regulate energy, focus, and recovery. B-complex vitamins are essential cofactors in the Krebs cycle, the metabolic pathway your cells use to convert food into usable energy. Oral supplements lose a significant share of their potency during digestion, while IV delivery reaches close to full absorption.

Honest about what it is

The Kickstart is supportive wellness therapy. It is a clean way to reset depleted energy and metabolism, and it works best alongside the foundations that actually drive how you feel: sleep, nutrition, movement, and managing stress. It is not a cure for chronic fatigue, a thyroid problem, anemia, or any underlying condition. If your fatigue is persistent or worsening, that deserves a medical evaluation, and our physicians will tell you so plainly rather than sell you another drip.

Looking before you book? Compare the Kickstart with the endurance-focused Stamina IV or the metabolic-support Slim & Trim IV, or see the full IV therapy menu.

Your physicians

A physician approves every drip

An IV is a medical procedure, so every Kickstart order is reviewed by a board-certified physician on shift, and a registered nurse places and monitors the line.

Chief Medical Officer
Dr. Uri Gedalia, MD, FACS
Board-Certified General Surgeon

Dr. Gedalia built TrufaMED around physician-led protocols, Joint Commission accreditation, and a standard of care usually reserved for hospital systems. He oversees the IV therapy program and approves the formulary, including the Kickstart.

Medical Director
Dr. Shane D. Naidoo, MD
Board-Certified Emergency Medicine

Dr. Naidoo directs clinical operations and supervises the nursing team. His emergency background brings calm, decisive judgment to every order and to the rare moment a patient needs the rate adjusted.

A board-certified physician leads every shift, seven days a week. This physician-first approach is why TrufaMED carries Joint Commission accreditation, a distinction held by only eight urgent care centers nationwide. Our lab operates under CLIA #10D2326945.

Kickstart IV, answered

What patients across Miami ask most before their first Kickstart session.

How soon will I feel the effects of the Kickstart IV?

Most patients notice improved energy and mental clarity within 30 to 60 minutes of starting the infusion. Because the nutrients go directly into the bloodstream, the effect arrives faster than oral supplements, and many patients describe a noticeable lift before the session is over. Response varies by person, hydration, and how depleted you were when you arrived.

What is actually in a Kickstart IV?

The Kickstart is a 1L saline base carrying a full B-complex (B1, B2, B3, B5, and B6), a curated amino acid blend, and proline. The B vitamins are cofactors your cells use to turn food into usable energy. The amino acids supply building blocks for repair and metabolic function, and proline supports collagen for skin, joints, and connective tissue. Every formula is reviewed by a physician before it is started.

How is the Kickstart different from coffee or an energy drink?

Caffeine and energy drinks stimulate your nervous system and mask fatigue for a few hours, then wear off. The Kickstart works on the underlying inputs instead, restoring the B vitamins and amino acids your cells need to produce energy at the metabolic level. There is no stimulant in the bag, so there is no jitter and no crash. It is a nutrient reset, not a stimulant.

Who is the Kickstart IV best for?

It suits anyone running on empty: a Monday reset after a heavy weekend, the days after travel or a long flight, recovery once an illness has passed, or the start of a focused wellness push. Professionals with back-to-back schedules and athletes in a demanding training block are the most frequent patients. It is supportive wellness care, not a treatment for a medical condition, which your physician confirms at intake.

How long does a Kickstart session take?

Plan for about 45 to 60 minutes from when the line is placed to when it comes out, plus a short medical intake at the start. In-clinic, you recline in our private IV lounge with complimentary red light therapy running alongside the drip. A mobile visit adds roughly ten minutes of setup at your home, hotel, or office.

How often can I get a Kickstart IV?

Frequency depends on your goals and how you respond. Some patients book a Kickstart weekly for sustained energy support, while others use it as needed before a busy stretch or after travel. There is no fixed schedule. Your physician recommends a cadence based on your health profile at your evaluation, and adjusts it over time.

Is the Kickstart IV safe?

Yes. Every ingredient is a pharmaceutical-grade nutrient that occurs naturally in the body. Each session is preceded by a medical evaluation and administered under physician supervision by licensed clinical staff at our Joint Commission-accredited clinic. Side effects are uncommon and usually limited to mild bruising at the IV site or a brief vitamin taste during the infusion.

Can I combine the Kickstart with other IV therapies?

On alternating visits, yes, and many patients do. We do not stack multiple IV bags at once without a physician evaluation. If your goal is endurance before an event, your physician may point you toward the Stamina IV instead, or build a rotating protocol across visits. The right pairing is decided with the physician at intake, not at the front desk.

What is the difference between Kickstart and the Stamina IV?

Both support energy, but they are tuned differently. The Kickstart is a broad energy and metabolism reset built on B-complex, amino acids, and proline, good for shaking off fatigue, fog, or a depleted stretch. The Stamina IV leans toward endurance and is often chosen before a workout or event. Your physician helps you pick the one that matches what you are trying to do.

Do you accept insurance, HSA, or FSA for the Kickstart IV?

Wellness IV therapy is self-pay and is not billed to health insurance. We accept all major cards, HSA and FSA, and Apple Pay, and provide receipts on request so you can submit to your plan if it allows IV therapy. Payment is collected at the time of service. Call (305) 537-6396 with any billing questions.
