Find a ProviderWhat is infusion therapy?
Infusion therapy happens when medications or fluids are administered directly into a person's vein. It is also called intravenous or IV infusion therapy. Intravenous, infusion, or injectable drug delivery methods are often utilized if oral/pill medications are unavailable, insufficient, or inappropriate.
Several of the newest medications are biologic (made or derived from living cells) and cannot be taken via the mouth, like a pill, as they are no longer effective after exposure to the GI tract. Biologic medications are prescribed to address IBD (inflammatory bowel diseases), such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, among other autoimmune conditions. If you or a loved one are seeking IV therapy in Denver, CO, request a consultation at your community's Denver Digestive Health Specialists location.
