Parenteral routes of drug administration are a means of introducing a drug into the body through injection, for quicker absorption by the body: intravenous, intramuscular, or subcutaneous.
Parenteral administration is any administration that is not via the GI system, meaning oral or rectal. Parenteral means "around the enteral system." Intravenous, subcutaneous, and intramuscular injections are all parenteral routes of administration. While inhalation would be considered parenteral in the strictest sense of the word, inhalation or aerosolization of medications are not usually considered parenteral, nor is topical administration.
Because after the drug has been injected it cannot be retreived..

What's the name of a condition that develops after the acute phase of an illness or injury has ended
Parenteral administration is used when the patient is unable to take the drug orally, rapid action of medication is needed, and medication is ineffective in the gastrointestinal tract. Parenteral administration is also used to avoid the gastrointestinal tract and its first pass effect and to delivery medication to specific organs or tissues.

A suppository is the method used to give a drug through the intestine.
Non-parenteral administration refers to routes of drug delivery that do not involve injections or puncturing the skin. This method includes oral, sublingual, buccal, rectal, transdermal, and inhalation routes, allowing medications to be absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract or other mucosal surfaces. Non-parenteral methods are often preferred for their ease of use and reduced risk of infection compared to parenteral routes.
A non-parenteral drug is one that is administered orally or by inhalation. Examples would be swallowing a pill or using an inhaler. Parenteral drugs are administered by injection or via transdermal patch (applied directly to the skin).
False -- Parenteral administration means taken into the body in a manner other than through the digestive tract.
