Advanced IV hydration using Lactated Ringer's solution — a balanced electrolyte formula that more closely mirrors the body's natural fluid composition than standard saline.
*Provided following a medical evaluation and physician oversight.
Not all IV fluids are equal. While standard normal saline (0.9% NaCl) is effective for basic hydration, Lactated Ringer's solution provides a more physiologically balanced replacement — containing sodium, potassium, calcium, and lactate in proportions that closely mirror human plasma.
Rehydrate+ is the preferred choice for patients with significant electrolyte depletion, athletic recovery, post-surgical hydration, or anyone seeking the most complete and physiologically aligned IV hydration available.
While normal saline is the most widely used IV fluid, Lactated Ringer's solution is often preferred in clinical settings for its more balanced electrolyte profile. It contains sodium, potassium, calcium, and lactate in concentrations that closely mirror the body's own extracellular fluid — making it a more physiologically compatible option for patients who need thorough rehydration.
The addition of potassium and calcium in Lactated Ringer's helps address a broader range of electrolyte imbalances than saline alone. Potassium supports heart rhythm, muscle contraction, and nerve function, while calcium is essential for blood clotting, bone health, and cellular signaling. The lactate component is metabolized by the liver into bicarbonate, which helps buffer blood pH and counteract acidosis.
The Rehydrate+ is our premium hydration option, ideal for patients recovering from prolonged illness, severe dehydration, intense physical activity, or medical procedures. It delivers a more complete electrolyte restoration in a single session, and is a favorite among athletes and wellness-focused patients in Surfside, Miami Beach, and the surrounding areas.

Normal saline (the carrier in Rehydrate) is sodium chloride and water. It works — but it is slightly hyperchloremic relative to blood, and large volumes can produce mild metabolic acidosis. Lactated Ringers is a balanced crystalloid that adds calcium, potassium, and lactate in proportions much closer to blood plasma. The lactate is metabolized by the liver into bicarbonate, supporting acid-base balance during recovery.
Emergency departments and surgical recovery units use Lactated Ringers as the standard fluid for moderate-to-severe dehydration, post-vomiting recovery, and post-operative hydration. At TrufaMED, Rehydrate+ is the recommended option for patients recovering from gastroenteritis or food poisoning, severe heat exhaustion, post-Ironman or other endurance event recovery, and any patient who simply prefers the more physiologic fluid choice.
Rehydrate+ is delivered in the same 30 to 45 minute window as standard Rehydrate. The infusion experience is identical from a patient perspective — same comfortable Eames chair, same physician oversight, same Red Light Therapy availability. The difference is entirely in the carrier fluid composition.
