Remember that when you swallow something, it enters the digestive system where it is subjected to stomach acid, digestive enzymes, and various digestive processes designed to break it down into easily absorbed, simple chemicals. If you want a drug to remain intact and unchanged, then swallowing is not the best idea. Inhaling is often a bad idea as well, since the lungs or sinuses may become irritated by foreign substances that you inhale. So we are left with intravenous administration.

What is the route of drug administration from slowest to fastest?
Slowest or LEAST EFFECTIVE route to MOST EFFECTIVE route: Topical (Slowest or least effective) Ingestion Intramuscular (IM) Intraperitoneal Inhalation (Inhaler or ET tube) Intravenous (IV) Some studies show administration of drugs via ET tube is as effective as IV.
Which route of administration produces 100 percent bioavailability?
Intravenous (IV)
What is the most common method of administration for a contrast medium?
For an MRI or CT scan, it is usually given through an IV. For the gastrointestinal system, it is usually drunk.
Can Atropine be given IM?
Yes, atropine can be administered intramuscularly (IM) in certain situations, such as in emergency settings for the treatment of bradycardia or as part of advanced cardiac life support. The IM route is less common compared to intravenous (IV) administration, but it can be effective when IV access is not available. Dosage and administration should always follow established medical guidelines and protocols.
When rapid action of medication is desired the best route is the?
When rapid action of medication is desired, the best route is typically intravenous (IV) administration. This method allows for immediate absorption and distribution of the medication directly into the bloodstream, ensuring quick therapeutic effects. Other fast-acting routes include intramuscular (IM) and sublingual, but IV remains the most effective for urgent situations.
What color of car is the most common driving car on Kam IV road?

What is peripheral IV administration?
Peripheral IV administration involves the insertion of a cannula or catheter into a small peripheral vein. It is most commonly used for hospitalized patients. Peripheral IV administration is used for fluids with an osmolarity of less than 900 mOsm/L. Its risk is low but it is associated with a few complications such as phlebitis, pain, and infection.
When is central IV administration used?
Central IV administration is used for patients who need a large infusion into a central vein (i.e. when peripheral administration is not available).
What is the most common chord progression used in popular music that includes the chords i, iv, and v?
The most common chord progression in popular music that includes the chords i, iv, and v is the "i-iv-V" progression.
Is potassium the most common additive to an iv solution?
no
What is the difference between an injection that is given IM OR IV?
IM means Intramuscular route of drug administration, while IV means Intraveinal route of drug administration. IV route, takes the drug directly into the bloodstream resulting in 100% bioavailability instantly. Where as in IM route, drug is injected into muscle tissues, which holds the drug for a while and gradually releases into the bloodstream through the network bed of capillaries running across or surrounding the muscle tissue. In IM, the bioavailability may be slightly less than 100% of drug due to diffusion from muscle through tissue fluid and into the blood.
If a patient is vomiting and IV antiemetics are not available what other route could be considered?
rectal administration is possible. Compazine, I believe, is one that can be. Scopalamine is sometimes administered in a patch form, too.
