Infusions can be delivered through both peripherally inserted central catheter lines and central lines.

- Back to my ADHD kid. Yeah, this is a fun story. His Dr at Dupage for the last 3 years put my son on a higher dose, it didn't work, so she changed his prescription altogether instead of upping it again and my son started hallucinating. From there, she decides to tell me she isn't a specialist in ADHD and I should see someone else.
