Pre-Procedure Instructions
To ensure your safety and comfort during treatment, please review the following guidelines:
-
Treatment Overview
Treatments are administered on an out-patient basis in private rooms at our office in Houston with a focus on adjusting dosing and adjunct medicines for efficacy, safety and patient comfort. -
A series of infusions followed by maintenance treatments provides greater and longer-lasting relief – with each subsequent infusion in a series building upon the last. We typically start with a series of 6 infusions over several weeks followed by maintenance treatments as-needed – with maintenance treatments typically starting about every 3 to 5 weeks. The number and frequency of treatments is variable from patient to patient.

When you come in for a treatment plan to be with us for approximately 90 minutes.
● The first 10-15 minutes is for talking with the provider for assessment and development or update of the multidisciplinary treatment plan, IV access, monitoring, and allowing you to get comfortable before infusion.
● Infusion runs for 40 minutes and during this that they are working on getting you to a floaty state (euphoric).
● Last 15 to 20 minutes is recovery. -
