Rough night out? Hop aboard! Or crawl, provided you're not afraid of needles.



A new IV procedure designed to rid the body of the toxins that cause hangovers may soon be just a phone call away, or bus stop if you can make it out of bed.

It's called Hangover Heaven, a new concept by board certified anesthesiologist Jason Burke who plans to administer his own concoction of vitamins, medications and amino acids on a traveling bus along the Las Vegas strip.

He claims his FDA approved treatment can cure 90 per cent of hangovers in about 45 minutes.

'No matter what you drank the night before, if you are feeling like you want to curl up and die the next morning, Hangover Heaven can get you back to feeling good in about 45 minutes,' his website states.

The white and blue bus featuring two lounge areas and six bunk beds will circulate the strip starting April 14, picking up patients who call or who follow the bus' location on their website - a feature they say is still in production.

'Once on the bus, our physician will take a brief medical history, and assess your hangover severity score. Then, numbing medicine is applied to your skin and a small IV will then be placed.

'Most people find it completely painless. Then you start receiving the treatment,' the website states.

No doubt the company was partially inspired by the film The Hangover, where the black out fueled plot line took place in Las Vegas

Once the procedure on board is finished the patients are said to be returned to their original location.

HANGOVER PACKAGES:
Redemption: $130
(intro price $90)
Includes intravenous hydration

Salvation Package: $200
(intro price $150)
Includes intravenous hydration, anti-nausea and anti-inflammatory medications, vitamin supplementation

In-room Treatment: $400
($125 for each additional)

'Now you can go out and have a good time, with the knowledge that if you drink a little too much, your hangover can be gone in an hour!' the service advertises.

'At the hotel I'm sure I had about 30 drinks, at least,' a patient identifying himself as Alex says in a video for Hangover Heaven.

'We probably called it a night around maybe 5:30, 6 o'clock. I slept until 8, about 8:30. My hangover was, when I woke up it was a 10, 11,' he says.

The video follows Alex receiving the IV in his hotel room which Hangover Heaven says will be an upcoming availability though at a higher cost.

Currently the three service packages start at an introductory price of $90, ordinarily $130, and go up to $400 for in-room treatment. Each additional patient accompanying the in-room ones would pay $125, the website states.

'Basically it's a cold tingly feeling. You just, you feel great. You feel refreshed, you feel crisp,' Alex says, adding: 'My hangover it absolutely gone. I have zero hangover. No more nausea, no more headache, I feel refreshed. I'm ready to go back out.'
