Some 50 million Americans suffer from chronic or headaches or migraines. At Neurology Partners of Hudson County, Vinod Kapoor, M.D., and Ashish Kapoor, M.D., offer infusion therapy to provide on-the-spot relief from hard-to-manage headaches.

“Infusion therapy for headaches is an alternative treatment that uses an IV to deliver specific medications that treat headaches to the body,” says Dr. Vinod Kapoor, a Hudson County neurologist since 1996. “While similar treatments can be offered by emergency rooms, seeing a neurologist for headache infusion therapy allows you to obtain effective care right when you need it.”

Infusion treatments are delivered slowly through a needle, typically into a vein with an IV bag. At Neurology Partners, treatments are administered by a registered nurse with more than 20 years of experience in a clinical office setting, and supervised by Dr. Ashish Kapoor, a Hudson County neurologist since 2013. It generally takes an hour or longer for the treatment to start working, he says.

Neurology Partners also administers infusible disease-modifying drugs approved by the Food and Drug Administration to treat multiple sclerosis and MS flareups, acute vertigo and acute back pain.
