What directly antagonizes the effect of calcitonin?

Parathyroid hormone (PTH) directly antagonizes the effect of calcitonin. Calcitonin and PTH have opposing effects on bone metabolism, with calcitonin working to decrease calcium levels in the blood, while PTH works to increase calcium levels.

Calcitonin acts in opposition to?

Why injections are done on muscles?

Injections into muscles, known as intramuscular injections, are performed to deliver medications directly into the bloodstream more quickly than with oral administration. This method is often used for vaccines, hormones, and certain medications that need to be absorbed rapidly or in larger volumes. Muscles have a good blood supply, which facilitates faster absorption, and the injection can provide a longer-lasting effect compared to other routes. Additionally, some substances are irritating to tissues and are better tolerated in muscle than in subcutaneous tissue.

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.
