What is home infusion?
Home infusion means getting medicine through a vein (IV) or under the skin at home, instead of in a hospital or clinic. It is often used when a medicine cannot be taken by mouth, or when other treatments have not worked.
A home infusion pharmacy gives you the medicine, the supplies and the support you need to have your infusion at home. MedRx Infusion Clinical Pharmacy is a home infusion and specialty pharmacy in Inglewood, California. We work with your doctor, your nurse and your insurance company at every step.

Is home infusion right for me?
