What does the term parenternal medication administration mean?

How does gastric bypass affect time released medication?
If you have had a Gastric Bypass you can no longer take time released medications & you should point that fact out to any health care professionals whom you see for the rest of your life. Time released medications need to stay in your stomach for hours to work all the way....because of the reduction & reconfiguration of your stomach medication does not stay there long enough to fully dissolve or "time release"....it moves on to the intestine before it has had a chance to do what it was supposed to do.
Medication is often injected in the subdural or subarachnoid space to alleviate pain?
Medication injected into the subdural or subarachnoid space can help alleviate pain by targeting specific areas and delivering the medication directly to the affected site. These methods bypass the barriers that oral medications would have to go through, allowing for more rapid and localized pain relief. However, these procedures should only be performed by medical professionals due to potential risks and complications.

What does bariatric surgery consist of?
Roux-en-Y (roo-en-wy) gastric bypass. This procedure is the most common method of gastric bypass. This surgery is typically not reversible. It works by decreasing the amount of food you can eat in one sitting and reducing the absorption of nutrients.
Gastric Bypass Banding Is An Option To Look Into?
Gastric bypass banding is an option that anyone looking into a traditional gastric bypass should consider before going through the full bypass operation. Talk to your bariatric surgeon about gastric banding before you decide to go through your bypass. A gastric banding operation comes with a much lower risk of surgical complications than a traditional bypass, and the recovery time is lessened by quite a bit. You'll also end up needing to take less supplements to meet your nutritional need, since you'll have greater absorption than someone with a traditional bypass. Consider a gastric band if your surgeon suggests it.
Benefits of Gastric Bypass on Diabetes?
Gastric bypass surgery has been proven to be very successful for obese patients with type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is frequently linked to obesity. Obese patients who have the gastric bypass surgery procedure are able to lose a large amount of weight very quickly and in a short amount of time. This often greatly reduces their need for insulin shots or other diabetic medication. Some patients are able to have their medication reduced while still in the hospital. Some patients are able to completely reverse their diabetes as a result of large weight loss following gastric bypass surgery procedures.
Will oxycodone effect you more if you take the drug rectally?
No. The absorption of any opiate depends on the form (liquid/solid/gas) and the route of administration (oral, intravenous, rectal, inhaled). While there are some advantages of certain routes of administration which bypass initial degradation by the liver, for the most part rectal administration (ie "up the butt") is not likely to lead to higher or quicker blood levels. IF you wanted to have greater rectal absorption, I would suggest a liquid, an opiate with greater absorption characteristics (fentanyl, for example) and prolonged contact time (holding an enema for example). This still has the dangers of overdose (death or respiratory depression with aspiration) since it is hard to judge the effect in advance. I would suggest sticking to swallowing your oxycodone.
