This document summarizes various channels of drug administration including enteral, parenteral, and topical routes. Oral administration includes swallowing drugs that are then absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract, or applying drugs topically to the mouth. Parenteral routes like intravenous, intramuscular, and subcutaneous involve injection or infusion of drugs directly into the body bypassing the GI tract. Topical administration applies drugs directly to surfaces like skin, eyes, or lungs in forms like creams, patches, or sprays.
