“Infusion” or “infusion therapy” refers to the delivery of medications directly into the blood vessel of a person. It is also known as intravenous or IV administration. Infusion, intravenous, or injectable methods of drug delivery are often used when oral medications are insufficient, inappropriate, or unavailable. A number of the latest medications are derived or made from living cells (biologic) and cannot be taken orally, like a pill, because they are no longer effective once exposed to the GI system. Biologic medications are often utilized to treat inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, and other autoimmune conditions. To find a provider who offers IV therapy in Chicago, IL, Peoria, IL, or Normal, IL, request a consultation at a GI Alliance of Illinois location in your area.
