Infusion Therapy in Miami / Kendall
Infusion therapy is a medical treatment that administers medication directly into the bloodstream through an intravenous (IV) line, ensuring rapid absorption and precise dosing, especially for medications that are less effective in pill form. It's commonly used to treat autoimmune diseases, infections, chronic pain, and cancers. Infusion therapy is often prescribed for conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn's disease, multiple sclerosis (MS), and certain cancers.
For patients with autoimmune disorders, infusion therapy delivers biologics—specialized drugs that target specific parts of the immune system to reduce inflammation and slow disease progression. In multiple sclerosis, medications like Ocrevus® or Tysabri® are infused to significantly reduce disease activity and improve quality of life.
Recent innovations in infusion therapy are also promising for Alzheimer's disease. Medications such as Leqembi® and Kisunla™, administered via infusion, target beta-amyloid plaques in the brain and have shown potential in slowing Alzheimer's progression for some patients.
Infusion therapy is typically provided in an infusion center or hospital by trained nurses. Treatment duration varies depending on the medication and condition, lasting anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours. The frequency of treatments ranges from weekly to monthly sessions.
This method is essential for patients who require powerful medications that cannot be effectively taken orally, offering a precise and efficient approach to managing both chronic and acute health conditions.

Receiving infusion therapy in the hospital typically takes longer than receiving the same infusion in an office-based Infusion Center. As a result, many patients find it difficult to get their infusions in the hospital and value the accessibility and affordability of their local office-based Infusion Center. Hospitals typically charge much higher fees for their services, even if they are offering the same or lower level of care for infusion patients.
The National Infusion Center Association believes that the office-based Infusion Center is currently the most cost-effective site of care for patients needing infusion therapy. They have a more controlled environment and are often more patient-friendly due to their focus on administering infusion medications.
