What is infusion therapy?

Infusion therapy involves the administration of medications through a needle or catheter.  It is prescribed when a patient’s condition is so severe that it cannot be treated effectively by oral medications.  At Poudre Infusion Therapy we provide professional, personalized, comprehensive infusion services in your home or in our private Ambulatory Infusion Suites. 

Common infusion therapies administered via infusion include; antibiotics, antifungal, antiviral, chemotherapy, hydration, pain management, and blood products. However, at Poudre Infusion Therapy, we do much more: immunotherapy, monoclonal antibodies, and injections for severe/moderate asthma. 

Infusion therapy is also provided to patients for treating a wide assortment of often chronic and sometimes rare diseases for which “specialty” infusion medications are effective.  Examples include:  Immuglobulin (for immunodeficiency), Remicade (for Rheumatoid Arthritis), Tysabri (for Multiple Sclerosis), blood factors, and many others.
