What Conditions Can Benefit from Infusion Therapy?

When you think of infusion therapy, you may think of treatments for severe medical conditions like cancer or rheumatoid arthritis. But infusion therapy can also help manage a wide range of serious and minor health conditions. Some of the conditions that can benefit from infusion therapy include:

Ankylosing Spondylitis

Ankylosing spondylitis is a type of arthritis that causes inflammation in the joints and ligaments of the spine. It may also affect peripheral joints like the knees, ankles, and hips. Normally, the joints and ligaments in the spine help us move and bend. If you have ankylosing spondylitis, the inflammation in the joints and tissues of the spine can cause stiffness. 

Many people with ankylosing spondylitis have mild episodes of back pain and stiffness that come and go. But others have severe, ongoing pain with loss of flexibility in the spine. In addition, other symptoms may develop depending on which other areas of the body are affected by the disease. Some people with ankylosing spondylitis develop eye disease (uveitis), skin disease (psoriasis), or gut disease (inflammatory bowel disease).

Autoimmune Disorders
Autoimmune disorders are conditions where the body’s immune system attacks its own tissues. There are many different types of autoimmune disorders, and they can affect any part of the body.
Crohn’s and Ulcerative Colitis
Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis are two types of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). They are both long-term diseases that cause inflammation in the digestive tract.
Gout

Gout is a type of arthritis that occurs when uric acid builds up in the blood. This can cause pain, swelling, and stiffness in the joints.

Hyperlipidemia

Hyperlipidemia means your blood has too many lipids (or fats), such as cholesterol and triglycerides. One type of hyperlipidemia, hypercholesterolemia, means you have too much non-HDL cholesterol and LDL (bad) cholesterol in your blood. This condition increases fatty deposits in arteries and the risk of blockages.

Another way your cholesterol numbers can be out of balance is when your HDL (good) cholesterol level is too low. With less HDL to remove cholesterol from your arteries, your risk of atherosclerotic plaque and blockages increases. Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) involves plaque buildup in arterial walls, which includes conditions such as acute coronary syndrome and peripheral artery disease and can cause a heart attack, stable or unstable angina, stroke, transient ischemic attack (TIA) or aortic aneurysm.

Inflammatory Arthritis, including Psoriatic Arthritis
Inflammatory arthritis is a type of arthritis that occurs when the body’s immune system attacks the joints. There are many different types of inflammatory arthritis, and they can affect any part of the body.
Lupus
Lupus is a chronic autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in various parts of the body. It can affect organs like the kidneys, lungs, heart, or brain.
Migraine Prevention
Migraines are a type of headache that can be very painful and disabling. They often occur with other symptoms like nausea and vomiting.
Moderate to Severe Asthma Disorders
Asthma is a respiratory condition that causes wheezing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. It is estimated that asthma affects 25 million Americans each year.
Moderate to Severe Infections
Moderate to severe infections are infections that are more serious than common colds or the flu. They can cause serious health problems if not treated properly.
