North Florida Infusion Therapy

Infusion therapy is a medical treatment that delivers medication directly into a patient’s bloodstream via an intravenous (IV) line. This method allows for rapid absorption and precise dosing of medications that might not be effective or available in pill form. Infusion therapy is commonly used to treat a range of conditions, including autoimmune diseases, infections, chronic pain, and cancers. Some of the most well-known uses of infusion therapy include treatments for rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn’s disease, multiple sclerosis (MS), and certain types of cancers.

For patients with autoimmune disorders, infusion therapy helps deliver biologics—specialized medications that target specific parts of the immune system to reduce inflammation and prevent disease progression. In diseases like MS, infusion treatments such as Ocrevus or Tysabri can significantly slow down disease activity and improve quality of life.

In the context of Alzheimer’s disease, new advancements have made infusion therapy a promising option. Drugs like Leqembi® and Kisunla™, which target beta-amyloid plaques in the brain, are delivered via infusions and have been shown to slow the progression of Alzheimer's in certain patients.

Infusion therapy usually takes place in an infusion center or hospital with a skilled nurse. The duration of the treatment varies depending on the medication and the patient’s condition. Infusion therapy can last anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours, and the frequency can range from weekly to monthly sessions.

This method is a vital option for patients who require potent medications that can't be effectively administered orally, providing a targeted, efficient way to manage chronic and acute health conditions.
