Infusion Therapy for Crohn’s Disease & Ulcerative Colitis

Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) encompass a range of chronic conditions that affect the digestive tract, primarily Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn's Disease. These conditions are marked by inflammation, leading to symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, and fatigue. While often confused with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), which involves similar symptoms without inflammation, IBD requires more targeted therapeutic approaches.

• Ulcerative Colitis: Ulcerative Colitis is characterized by inflammation and ulcers in the colon and rectum. Patients often experience frequent bowel movements, blood in stools, and abdominal discomfort. Managing this condition involves therapies aimed at reducing inflammation and preventing flare-ups.
• Crohn's Disease: Crohn's Disease can affect any part of the gastrointestinal tract, leading to symptoms like severe diarrhea, weight loss, and malnutrition. The goal of treatment is to control inflammation and manage symptoms to improve overall health and quality of life.
