Prepping for Surgery or a Big Procedure? Here’s How IV Therapy Can Help You Heal Faster

Whether you're heading into cosmetic surgery, a wisdom tooth extraction, or any scheduled medical procedure, prepping your body is just as important as the procedure itself. Most people focus on the aftercare—but smart recovery starts before you go under.

At Drip Trussville, we support patients looking to heal faster, feel better, and reduce downtime by using IV therapy both before and after their procedures.

Why Pre-Op Hydration and Nutrients Matter

Your body views surgery—even minor procedures—as stress. When you're low on fluids or nutrients, that stress takes a bigger toll. Going into a procedure already dehydrated or nutrient-deficient increases your risk of:

  • Prolonged recovery

  • Increased fatigue

  • Poor wound healing

  • Weakened immune response

  • Increased inflammation

By giving your body a head start with IV hydration and targeted vitamins, you’re setting yourself up for a smoother recovery and fewer complications.

What to Include in Your Pre-Op Drip

💧 Hydration – Essential for circulation, oxygen delivery, and supporting your body’s stress response.
🍊 Vitamin C – A powerful antioxidant that supports immune function and wound healing.
🧬 Zinc – A key player in tissue repair and infection prevention.
B Vitamins – Support energy metabolism and help manage the stress of surgery.
🛡️ Glutathione (optional) – A master antioxidant that aids in detox and reduces inflammation.

We’ll work with you to tailor the drip based on your procedure and your needs—whether you're having a same-day outpatient treatment or something more complex.

What About After the Procedure?

Post-op IV therapy can:

  • Speed up tissue recovery

  • Reduce inflammation and swelling

  • Help with nausea and fatigue

  • Support your immune system during healing

  • Restore hydration and nutrients lost during surgery or anesthesia

Some patients even book a mobile IV so they can recover comfortably at home while still getting professional support.
