What is the advantage of ammonotelic excretion over uricotelic excretion?
The advantage is that ammonia (NH3) is not converted in Ammonotelic excretion. Fish can excrete ammonia through gills because there is a lot of water to dilute it in without causing damage to their cells. In Uricotelic excretion, NH3 has to be converted to a solid form via a complex and ATP-costly route. So Uricotelic excretion takes a lot more energy than Ammonotelic excretion.

What body waste is expelled through the skin?
The skin produces sweat, but this is not really an excretion. The main function of sweat is to help cool the body. However sweat also contains small amounts of urea, the main waste found in the urine. The concentration of urea in sweat is much less than that in the urine, so this is not a significant route for excretion. Sweat also contains samll amounts of salts (minerals), but again the urine is the main route for the elimination of excess salt.

Why all drugs are not given through parenteral route?
Most take medications at home and do not have the training nor the equipment to do so. Only drugs designed and intended for administration via a parenteral route should be taken that way. If drugs designed to be taken orally are administered parenterally the "user" could be harmed, and the medication may work very differently than intended. In addition, most drugs are tested as orally administered medications. The way they are absorbed, how they are metabolized, and the dose and time to effect are all designed for oral administration.
