Intravenous (IV) therapy is a medical treatment that involves the administration of fluids, medications, and nutrients directly into a patient’s veins through a sterile catheter. .
This method of delivery allows for fast and effective absorption of medications and nutrients, making it an effective treatment for a wide range of conditions, including dehydration, nutrient deficiencies, and certain infections.
IV therapy can be used to deliver a variety of substances, including saline solution, electrolytes, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and medications. It is often used in hospitals, clinics, and other medical settings, but it can also be administered at home by trained healthcare professionals.
IV therapy can provide rapid relief from symptoms and can be especially helpful for patients who are unable to take medications orally or who require more immediate treatment than can be provided by other methods.
