What is an IV Infusion?An IV infusion is an IV placed in to a vein to administer fluids, electrolytes, and minerals directly into the bloodstream. This allows to increased absorption of fluids, electrolytes and minerals because they bypass the digestive tract.

IV administration allows for higher absorption rates which then enables the body to optimally function.
