The patients would get rehydrated or receive drugs by intravenous fluids. The drugs may be given intravenously in cases of immediate medical help or inability to take fluids by mouth.
Where are the IV fluids passed through?
A typical IV administration is of an isotonic solution like the saline solution that is injected into the vein either through a catheter or a cannula to deliver drugs or to fasten the process of hydration.
