Infusion Services

When oral antibiotics are insufficient, intravenous (IV) antibiotic therapy offers a more dependable treatment option. IV therapy is often prescribed for complex, severe, or long-term infections that require precise dosing and close clinical monitoring.

Our pharmacy collaborates directly with prescribing physicians to ensure the selected antibiotic regimen is appropriate and safely administered. Infusion pharmacists oversee therapy progression and coordinate adjustments when clinically indicated, helping ensure patients receive targeted and effective treatment.

Common IV Antibiotics Available

• Vancomycin
• Rocephin (Ceftriaxone)
• Invanz
• Cubicin
• Nafcillin
• Cefepime
• Fortaz
• Tobramycin
• Cefazolin

Administration Process

IV antibiotics may be delivered through slow intravenous push or via ambulatory infusion pump, depending on the prescribed therapy. Patients and caregivers receive comprehensive instruction, practical demonstrations, and educational materials to confidently manage treatment at home when applicable.

Our clinical team remains available 24/7 to provide support, answer questions, and address equipment or medication-related concerns, ensuring continuous guidance throughout therapy.

Comprehensive IG Treatment for Pediatric and Adult Patients

At Town Pharmacy, we provide specialized immunoglobulin (IG) therapy for individuals living with immune deficiencies, autoimmune disorders, and neuromuscular conditions. Our team is committed to delivering individualized IG treatment plans tailored to the unique clinical needs of both children and adults.

Understanding Immunoglobulin (IG) Therapy

Immunoglobulin therapy consists of purified antibodies derived from human plasma to help strengthen and regulate the immune system. It plays a critical role in reducing susceptibility to bacterial and viral infections and is also used to manage certain autoimmune disorders. IG therapy is particularly important for patients whose bodies cannot produce sufficient antibodies independently.

IG treatment may be administered through two primary methods:

• Intravenous Immunoglobulin (IVIG): Infused directly into the bloodstream over several hours.
• Subcutaneous Immunoglobulin (SCIG): Delivered beneath the skin using a portable pump, allowing for greater flexibility in home-based therapy.

Infusion sessions generally last between four and six hours, depending on the prescribed product and delivery method.

Expanded Clinical Applications

In addition to FDA-approved indications, immunoglobulin therapy may be prescribed for select autoimmune, idiopathic, and infectious conditions when clinically appropriate. Ongoing medical research continues to evaluate additional therapeutic applications beyond traditional uses.

FDA-Approved Indications Include:

• Primary Immune Deficiency (PID)
• Secondary Immunodeficiency associated with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL)
• Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura (ITP)
