    Study Notes

    Routes of Drug Administration

    • Intravenous (IV): Directly into a vein, bypassing absorption.
    • Intraperitoneal (IP): Injected into the abdominal cavity.
    • Intra-articular: Injected directly into the joint space.

    Intravenous (IV) Injections

    • Most efficient method of delivering substances to animals as it bypasses absorption.
    • Smaller volumes are administered intramuscularly compared to subcutaneous delivery.
    • Suitable for aqueous or specialized depot preparations.

    Inhalation

    • May be preferred to avoid systemic effects.
