It's actually the "parenteral" route.
It means some other form of administration other than ingestion, such as injection, infusion, or implantation.
This most likely means an injection with a syringe.
A parenteral medication is any medication that is not given via the gastrointestinal tract. This can include any injected medication or IV infusion.

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.

Parenteral refers to any route of administration that bypasses the gastrointestinal tract. These routes can include Intravenous therapy (IV therapy), intramuscular/ subcutaneous/intradermal injection, buccal, sublingual, or rectal administration, or transvaginal administration (as with the vaginal contraceptive or hormone-therapy ring). Medication patches are also parenteral.
