About IV Hydration

How IV Hydration Works
The primary benefit of IV therapy is that it delivers the needed products directly to the bloodstream.
Rather than waiting for nutrients to be absorbed through the digestive system, our patients can quickly receive them where the body will actually utilize them.
Most therapies take between 15 and 30 minutes to administer, and we even have some patients come in on their lunch breaks.

What Are Peptides
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that naturally occur throughout the body and play important roles in communication between cells.
They can influence a variety of biological processes, including hormone signaling, metabolism, tissue repair, and other physiological functions.
At Rune Vitality, peptide therapy is approached as part of an individualized wellness and medical optimization program. We evaluate your health history, goals, symptoms, and laboratory results to determine whether a particular peptide therapy may be appropriate for you.
Potential Benefits of Peptide Therapy
Depending on the specific peptide and the individual, peptide-based therapies may support:
- Metabolic health and body composition
- Weight management and fat loss
- Recovery and tissue support
- Muscle and physical performance
- Sexual wellness and libido
- Overall wellness and healthy aging

Personalized Peptide Therapy
There is no one-size-fits-all peptide protocol. Different peptides affect different biological pathways, which is why treatment is selected based on your individual needs and medical history.
Rune Vitality offers several peptide options, including Tesamorelin, Sermorelin, PT-141, BPC-157, and TB-500, when clinically appropriate. A small number of additional peptides are available on request — ask your provider if you don’t see what you’re looking for.

A Medical Approach to Peptide Therapy
Our goal is a thoughtful, individualized approach rather than simply offering a peptide.
We focus on understanding why a therapy may be appropriate, what outcomes we’re targeting, and how progress should be monitored. Peptide therapy is not appropriate for everyone — a medical evaluation is performed before treatment.
Peptides Offered
Tesamorelin
(Injection)
A growth hormone–releasing hormone analog that may be prescribed for specific medical indications. Individualized following appropriate medical evaluation.
Sermorelin
(Injection)
A growth hormone–releasing hormone analog that stimulates the body’s natural production of growth hormone. May be considered as part of an individualized hormone and wellness program.
PT-141
(Injection)
PT-141 (bremelanotide) is a peptide therapy that works differently than traditional ED medications — targeting the brain’s desire pathways rather than blood flow — to help enhance libido and sexual response in both men and women.
See Sexual Wellness and Men’s Health
BPC-157 / TB-500
(Injection)
Peptides commonly discussed in the context of recovery and tissue support. Use is based on individualized medical evaluation and appropriate clinical considerations.

Peptide Therapy in San Marcos
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signals in the body. Depending on the peptide, they may support metabolism, recovery, muscle, sexual wellness and healthy aging. We offer peptides including Tesamorelin, Sermorelin, PT-141, BPC-157 and TB-500. Every peptide plan starts with a conversation and a professional consultation. Some peptides call for lab work first and others don’t, and your practitioner will let you know which applies to you.
We serve patients across San Diego County, including San Marcos and North County, and Riverside County, including Temecula.
What is IV therapy and how does it work?
IV therapy delivers fluids, vitamins and minerals directly into your bloodstream through a small catheter. This skips the digestive system, so nutrients are available to your body right away.
How long does an IV therapy session take?
Most IV hydration and vitamin IV therapy sessions take approximately 30 minutes at our San Marcos clinic. IV NAD+ takes longer, about 2.5 hours.
Can I book IV hydration directly in San Marcos?
Yes. IV hydration can be booked directly. We’ll complete a short health screening before your first infusion.
What is the difference between IV hydration and vitamin IV therapy?
IV hydration focuses on fluids and electrolytes. Vitamin IV therapy adds vitamins, minerals or antioxidants, such as in a Myers’ Cocktail or a vitamin C drip, for added support.
What is peptide therapy?
Peptide therapy uses specific amino acid chains to support functions such as metabolism, recovery, sexual wellness and healthy aging. Your practitioner chooses peptides based on your goals and health history. Peptide consultations and follow-ups are available by telehealth anywhere in California.
Do I need lab work for peptide therapy?
It depends on the peptide. Some require labs before starting and others don’t. We’ll tell you at your consultation.
