What is infusion therapy?
Infusion therapy is the term used for the delivery of medications or fluids through an IV. This allows the medications or fluids to be administered directly into a vein, which is the fastest way for them to be delivered to the entire body.
Patients who require infusion therapy are often not able to receive medication orally for a variety of reasons. For example, a patient may be unable to swallow medication or their strong stomach acid levels may destroy the active ingredients in medication.
