BioScrip Acquires Intravenous Therapy Services; Establishes West Coast Platform
for Specialty Infusion Operations; BioScrip Increases Existing Credit Facility
to $65 million

Elmsford, NY - March 2, 2006 - BioScrip, Inc. (NASDAQ: BIOS) today announced
that it has acquired Intravenous Therapy Services ("ITS"), a specialty infusion
company located in Burbank, California. In addition, the Company announced that
it has increased its existing revolving credit facility with HFG Healthco-4 LLC,
the Company's primary lender, to $65 million.

Brian J. Reagan, Executive Vice President of BioScrip's Infusion division
commented, "This transaction complements our strategic objective of expanding
BioScrip's infusion operations nationally. The addition of ITS enhances our
ability to service infusion patients on both the East and West coasts. ITS has
cultivated an excellent reputation with prestigious California-based healthcare
payors and has grown significantly by focusing on the needs of patients, payors,
prescribers, nurses and other healthcare professionals."

The purchase price consists of approximately $13 million in cash, plus a
potential earn-out payment contingent on ITS achieving certain future financial
performance benchmarks. ITS currently generates approximately $9 million in
annual revenue. BioScrip expects ITS to be only marginally accretive to the
Company's earnings per share in calendar 2006 as a result of increased
investment to support ITS's sales growth and market expansion. Immediately after
the purchase, ITS will operate under the name "BioScrip Infusion Services" as a
part of the Company's infusion division.

Marcel Sassola, III, R.Ph., President and CEO of Intravenous Therapy Services,
stated, "We are pleased to join a progressive, patient focused company with a
nationwide reach. BioScrip has access to innovative, infusible drugs which will
enhance the level of care we can deliver and further solidifies our commitment
to our patients and customers for the long term." Mr. Sassola will continue to
run ITS's business and operations after the acquisition.

At the time of the acquisition, BioScrip also increased its existing revolving
credit facility with HFG Healthco-4 LLC, a subsidiary of Healthcare Finance
Group and the Company's primary lender, from $45 million to $65 million. The
Company had sufficient borrowing capacity to acquire ITS under the terms of the
existing facility; however the Company believed that increasing the line
afforded it more flexibility to accommodate working capital needs and other
potential strategic opportunities.

Richard H. Friedman, BioScrip Executive Chairman noted, "We are pleased that HFG
has been a strong partner to us over the years and recognizes our strategic
vision and growth potential."
