IV Infusion

IV Infusion is a type of medication administration in which a medication is delivered into a vein over an extended period of time, usually through a vein catheter. The medication is slowly and continuously infused into the bloodstream, providing a steady and controlled delivery of the active ingredient.

IV Infusions are typically used for medications that require a gradual and controlled release, such as antibiotics, pain management drugs, and fluid replacement solutions. They are usually given by a healthcare provider in a hospital or clinical setting, and the exact composition and recommended duration of the infusion will depend on the specific drug and the individual patient's needs.

IV Infusions are a common method of treatment for patients who are unable to take medications orally, and they provide a convenient and effective way to deliver medication directly into the bloodstream. However, they can also have risks and side effects, including infections at the infusion site, allergic reactions, and complications from the catheter. As with all medical treatments, the use of IV Infusions should be determined by a healthcare provider based on the individual patient's needs and medical history.
