IV (intravenous) therapy involves administering fluids, medications, or other substances directly into a patient’s vein using a small catheter. This allows the substances to be absorbed into the bloodstream quickly and efficiently.
IV infusion therapy works by delivering fluids, nutrients, or medications directly into a vein. This method bypasses the digestive system, allowing for quicker and more efficient absorption. It’s often used for hydration, nutrient deficiencies, and medical treatments.

We’ll first obtain a medical history before proceeding to determine the safety. A nurse will start by cleaning the injection site, typically on the arm. They will then insert a small catheter into a vein and connect it to an IV drip bag. The entire process typically takes 30-60 minutes. Patients can relax or work during the treatment. We’ll then instruct you on post infusion care and you can be out to enjoy the rest of your day.
