2. DEFINATION
• It refers its site of administration from where we give drug
• Vary in route of administration responsible for changing bioavailability
• Bioavailability is the rate and extent of drug reaches systemic circulation
• Relative bioavailability
• Absolute bioavailability
4. ENTERAL
• Drug is going through intestine
• This is again classified into :
1) Oral
2) Rectal
3) Buccal
4) Subligual
5. ORAL
Most of the drugs is given by the oral route
advantages:-
1) Easy to use
2) No skill require and sterility
3) Economical
4) Cheap
Disadvantages:-
1) First pass metabolism
2) Cant used in case of emergency
3) Nausea and vomiting
4) Some drugs are degraded by gastric enzymes e.g. insulin
6. FIRST PASS METABOLISM
• Before going into blood drug is going into liver through portal vein where is metabolized
• So this reduces the systemic availability of the drug i.e. bioavailability
• That’s why we need more dose in case of the oral route of administration
• Dose :- amount of drug needed for therapeutic activity
DRUG LIVER BLOOD
7. RECTAL
• Purgative and irritant can be given by rectal route of administration
• Advantages :
1) Purgative drug and irritant drug can be given
2) Easy to use
3) Cheap
4) Local action also produces
Disadvantages:
1) Poor patient compliances
2) First pass metabolism
8. BUCCAL
• Absorbed by the buccal mucosa
• Between gums and inner lining of the cheek
advantages:-
1) No FPM
2) Rapid absorption
3) Drug Stable
Disadvantages :-
1) Do not swallowed if swallowed advantages lost
2) Large dose cant not be given
3) Inconvinience
9. SUBLIGUAL
• Kept under the tongue
• Rapid absorption takes place by sublingual mucosa
• Absorption takes place through subligual vein
Advantages :-
1) Rapid drug absorption
2) Terminate drug after desired action by splitting
3) No FPM and economical
4) Economical
Disadvantages :-
1) Irritation of the oral mucosa
2) Bitter and unpalatable drug
3) Cannot give the large quantities
4) Limited no of drugs are only absorbed
10. PARANTERALS
• Para – outside enteron- intestine
• Done by the needle and it also include metered dose inhaler
• There is no FPM
• This is again classified into :
A) Injectables
B) Inhalation
11. INTRAVENOUS
• 100% absorption and no FPM
• Angle of administration – 25
• Useful in case of emergency
• It can also be used when there is situation of diarroea and vomiting
• Large quantities can also be given
• Desired blood concentration is achieved
Disadvantaged :-
1) Phlebitis and pain at site of injection
2) Skill person
3) Cant reverse action and expensive
12. INTRAMUSCULAR
• Advantages –
1) Rapid absorption and mild irritant drug can be given
2) FPM is avoided
3) There is no gastric irritation
Disadvantages –
1) Expensive and nerve damage
2) Painful and abcess formed
3) Limitation upto 10ml drug
13. SUBCUTANEOUS
• All vaccine are given by the SC route
Advantages –
1) Prolonged action
2) Certain hormonal drug are given by using implant
3) Self administration is possible
4) High bioavailability and no FPM
Disadvantages –
1) Little Pain at site of injection
2) Small volume upto 1-2 ml possible
3) Irritant drug cant be given
19. INTRAPERITONEAL
• Administered into the serum membrane in between viscera and lining the
abdominal cavity by injection known as intraperitoneal
• Infants for giving glucose and saline
• Peritoneal dialysis
21. INHALATION
• Generally used in case of the asthma
• Metered dose inhalers
• Rapid action
• No FPM
Advantages –
Self administration and rapid action as well as suitable for CR delivery to the respiratory tract
Disadvantages –
Irritation cause by the drug
Difficulty in dose estimation
Expensive
22. LOCAL
• Local action
• Required lipid solubilitly
Types –
1) Topical (skin and mucous membrane)
2) Dipper tissues(retrobulbar injection)
3) Arterial supply(intraarterial injection)
