Monoclonal Antibody Treatment

Life-saving treatment for high-risk COVID-19 patients

Monoclonal antibody therapy, also called monoclonal antibody infusion treatment, is available at most Baptist Memorial hospitals. This life-saving therapy is used to treat COVID-19 in individuals who have tested positive for the virus and are at high risk for developing severe illness. Laboratory-made monoclonal antibodies are given to the patient through intravenous (IV) infusion or injection on an outpatient basis. Baptist was the first health care system in the region to offer monoclonal antibody therapy to qualified COVID-19 patients.
