Intravenous therapy is a technique to place a catheter inside a vein to provide access to the vein, allowing a medical professional to administer fluids and medication to a patient. IV access allows the body to have more immediate and efficient access to medicine than by other methods, such as taking pills, making it the fastest route to deliver medication and fluid replacement.
