Infusion pharmacology

Infusion pharmacology involves delivering medications directly into the bloodstream through a controlled method, typically via a vein, using an IV. This allows for rapid absorption, precise dosing, and continuous delivery of the drug over time. It’s commonly used in hospitals for treatments like antibiotics, pain management, or chemotherapy. The process requires understanding how the medication interacts with the body, ensuring the correct rate and volume to achieve the desired effect while minimizing side effects. Proper monitoring and infusion techniques are essential to ensure safety and effectiveness in patient care.
