IV & IM Infusions

Intravenous (IV) injections deliver medication or fluids directly into the vein, providing rapid onset of action and suitability for larger volumes. In contrast, intramuscular (IM) injections are given into muscle tissue, offering slower absorption and often used for smaller volumes or substances that need to be released gradually into the bloodstream.

​

Patients receiving intramuscular (IM) injections may experience a delayed onset of effects, typically ranging from 4 to 14 days. This delay is due to the time it takes for our bodies to start utilizing these nutrients.
