Infectious Disease Injection Therapy in Toms River, NJ

Overview

Infectious disease specialists treat and help prevent infections caused by viruses, bacteria and other germs. For HIV, long-acting injections given by a healthcare professional every one or two months can replace daily pills for some people. Infuse Care gives these provider-prescribed injections in a private, discreet setting and keeps your care team informed.

Conditions We Support

• HIV treatment for adults whose virus is already well controlled
• HIV prevention (PrEP) for people at risk of getting HIV

Therapies That May Be Available at Infuse Care

• Cabenuva (cabotegravir and rilpivirine) for HIV treatment: two injections into the muscle of the buttock, every one or two months
• Apretude (cabotegravir) for HIV prevention: one injection into the muscle of the buttock, two starting doses one month apart, then every two months

Whether these therapies are right for you depends on your health history, test results and your provider's order.

How Treatment May Help

Long-acting injections can keep HIV under control, or help prevent HIV, without taking a pill every day. They work best when every injection is given on schedule.

Treatment Considerations

Keeping appointments on time is important; missed doses can make treatment less effective. HIV testing is required before starting PrEP and at each visit. Injection-site soreness is common. All visits are handled with privacy and discretion.

Your prescribing provider decides which treatment is right for you. Infuse Care administers prescribed therapies after a referral, a clinical review and any required insurance authorization, and we keep your provider's office updated on your care.
