To answer this question, a few facts have to be established. It is generally known that oil and water do not mix (one can see this when attempting to shake up a bottle of oil and vinegar salad dressing). With this, the human body's blood is like water and the drug in injection is like oil. When an intramuscular injection is giving, the oil-like drug sits in the muscle as water-like blood passes by. The drug does not want to readily dissolve into the blood so it will sit in the muscle. Over time though, the blood will "wash" some of the drug from the muscle into the blood where the drug can reach its intended destination and thus carry out its effect.

Why is the rate of onset of the medication in intramuscular administration slow?
There is little blood flow to the fatty tissue where the solution is injected. The absorption rate will hence be slow and this will lead to a slow rate of onset.
What is mean onset in pharmacology?
Onset in pharmacology refers to the amount of time it takes for a drug to start producing its therapeutic effects after administration. This can vary depending on the drug's pharmacokinetics and route of administration. A fast onset means the drug acts quickly, while a slower onset implies a delayed response.
