infusion therapy

Infusion therapy is a medical treatment that delivers fluids, medications, or nutrients directly into a patient's bloodstream through a vein. This method is commonly used for patients who cannot take medicines by mouth, need hydration, or require precise dosing of medications, such as antibiotics or chemotherapy. Infusion therapy can be administered in hospitals, outpatient clinics, or sometimes at home, often using an IV (intravenous) line. It allows for quick absorption of treatments, ensuring they work effectively and efficiently within the body.
