ABOUT IV inFUSION THERAPY
When you want to ensure medications or nutrients get the quickest delivery into the body, injection into the bloodstream is used. IV infusion therapy uses this concept to directly add needed components to the bloodstream to treat various conditions, including chronic pain. Our interventional pain specialists at Ospina Medical offer IV infusion therapy as one of our treatment options at our clinic in New York City.
When you take medications or nutritional supplements orally, they must go through the digestive process before they enter the blood. This slows the administration, and some components may be destroyed or pass through the body, never entering the blood system. With intravenous, or IV infusion, therapy, nutrients are delivered directly to the blood in an absorbable form. This offers quicker absorption and can be especially beneficial for those who have malabsorption issues that contribute to nutritional deficiencies.
