• Infusion therapy is the administration of fluids or medications directly into the bloodstream through a needle or catheter. This is often used when a person can't take medicine by mouth or needs more fluids or nutrients than they can drink. It’s commonly used to treat dehydration, infections, or chronic conditions like cancer. Depending on the patient's needs, infusion therapy can be administered in a hospital, an outpatient center, or at home.
