Compare and contrast 2 routes of administration of drugs. What are benefits and drawbacks of each?

What will be an ideal response?


Answer: Answers will vary depending on choice. A benefit of intravenous injection is how rapidly the drug will be absorbed, whereas a drawback is that more skill is required to administer. Intraperitoneal injection is less rapid, often only used with laboratory animals. Oral administration can be limited if the drug can be destroyed by digestive processes.
