All You Need to Know About Getting a Pepcid IV in Chicago

If you suffer from heartburn, acid reflux, or GERD, and you’re in the Chicago area, then Pepcid IV may be your best bet when it comes to a quick fix of relief. The procedure itself is easy enough – you get an IV put in and then relax as the Pepcid drips in.

What is a Pepcid IV?

Pepcid helps reduce stomach acid levels and prevent acid reflux, which causes heartburn and indigestion. It is available over the counter as an oral tablet or in liquid form. However, it can also be administered intravenously at your doctor’s office through a process called Pepcid infusion therapy. Pepcid IV is typically used when taking an oral form of Pepcid isn’t enough to relieve symptoms. If you suffer from frequent bouts of heartburn or GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease), talk to your doctor about whether Pepcid IV may help.

What are the Potential Benefits of a Pepcid IV?

Your doctor may prescribe a Pepcid IV if you have severe heartburn and trouble swallowing. The acid-reducing medications typically given via pill can be more difficult for your body to absorb than normal. If your symptoms get worse, it could be because you’re not properly absorbing these medications—which is where an intravenous (IV) medication comes into play.

A Pepcid IV can help your body absorb medications quickly, working more efficiently and decreasing symptoms faster. This is especially useful if your heartburn has been stubborn and hasn’t responded well to previous treatments. Intravenous medication can also offer relief if you suffer from an acute episode of acid reflux or chronic gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD).

A Pepcid IV is administered by an intravenous infusion into your arm. These treatments are designed to relieve symptoms of acid reflux or GERD. There is no reason you can’t continue with normal activities afterward and return to work right away if necessary.
