Infusion: Hydration and Antibiotic

Infusion refers to the process of introducing a fluid, such as medication, hydration solutions, or antibiotics, directly into the bloodstream through a vein. It can be administered through an IV (intravenous) line, which allows the fluid to be delivered quickly and efficiently.

Hydration

Hydration infusions are commonly used to replenish fluids in individuals who are dehydrated due to medical conditions, severe illness, or inadequate intake of fluids. These infusions typically consist of electrolytes, water, and sometimes glucose.

Antibiotic

Antibiotic infusions, on the other hand, involve administering antibiotics directly into the bloodstream to treat bacterial infections that may be more severe or resistant to oral medications. This method ensures that the antibiotics reach the infection site quickly and effectively.

Infusions are commonly performed in healthcare settings, such as hospitals or clinics, under the supervision of medical professionals, nurses, or trained personnel. They can be a vital part of medical treatment plans to support hydration and deliver medications directly into the bloodstream for faster and more targeted effects.
