1) it acts on the organ or organ system it is intended to act on

2) the action of the drug is as intended (for example, if it is meant as a diuretic, it actually causes the kidneys to excrete more urine)

3) it does not have any side effects (that is, it does not have any biological effects other than the ones intended).

How route of administration drug can control bioavailability drug?

The route of administration of a drug can affect its bioavailability by influencing factors such as first-pass metabolism, absorption rate, and drug stability. For example, intravenous administration bypasses the first-pass metabolism, leading to higher bioavailability compared to oral administration where the drug may be metabolized before reaching the systemic circulation. Additionally, different routes can also affect the onset of action and duration of drug effects.

Why drugs administered by i.v route?

I.V. route of drug administration means intravenous injection of the drug. Here, the drug is directly injected into the vein. The advantages are- 1. It can be employed in unconscious or uncooperative patients 2. It can be employed in cases of vomitting and diarrhoea.(in such cases,if drugs are administered via oral route, they will be excreted out in the vomitus or faeces) 3. Drugs which might irritate the stomach or are not absorbed by oral route can be administered 4. drugs which are destroyed by digestive juices (eg- insulin) or liver enzymes (eg-penicilin G) can be administered (first pass metabolism overcome) 5. Since drug is directly delivered into the circulation, bioavilability is 100%. therefore excellent accuracy of dose. 6.No time is wasted in absorption of drug, therefore rapid onset of action. therefore suitable for emergencies
