Wup Water Up HYDRACTIVE EFFERVESCENT ELECTROLYTE TABLET
Hydractive from Wup (Water Up) is a caffeinated effervescent electrolyte tablet — a genuine point of difference, pairing sodium, potassium, magnesium, calcium and vitamin C with roughly an espresso's worth of caffeine per tablet. Dropped into water, in lemon and apple flavours. From the Turkish brand and Informed Sport certified, so every batch is screened against the banned-substances list.

Why this certification matters
- Informed Sport
- Informed Sport certification is especially relevant for athletes in tested sports because products are batch-tested for substances prohibited in sport.
Frequently asked questions
- What makes Hydractive different from other electrolyte tablets?
- It contains caffeine — roughly the amount in an espresso per tablet — alongside the electrolytes. Most effervescent electrolyte tablets are caffeine-free, so this combines hydration with a stimulant in one drop-in tablet.
- What electrolytes and extras does it contain?
- Each tablet supplies sodium, potassium, magnesium and calcium plus vitamin C, along with the caffeine. The flavours are lemon and apple.
- Should I be cautious about the caffeine?
- Because it is caffeinated, factor it into your daily caffeine intake and avoid it close to bedtime — unlike a plain electrolyte tablet you could take any time.
- Is it tested for banned substances?
- Yes. It carries Informed Sport certification, so every batch is independently screened against the WADA banned-substances list — caffeine is permitted in sport, but the certification confirms no prohibited compounds are present.
