Why might a drug be administered sublingually? a) To slow down the drug absorption b) To avoid liver metabolism c) To cause irritation in the mouth d) To prevent drug degradation by digestive juices Answer: To avoid liver metabolism ( “The chief advantage is that liver is bypassed and drugs with high first pass metabolism can be absorbed directly into systemic circulation.”) 5. Which route involves applying a drug directly to the skin for slow and prolonged absorption? a) Intramuscular b) Cutaneous c) Sublingual d) Intravenous Answer: Cutaneous (“Highly lipid soluble drugs can be applied over the skin for slow and prolonged absorption.”) 6. What is a major disadvantage of the oral route of administration? a) It requires sterile preparations b) It is painful c) It cannot be used for uncooperative/unconscious patients d) It is suitable for emergencies Answer: It cannot be used for uncooperative/unconscious patients (“Cannot be used for uncooperative/unconscious/ vomiting patient.”) 1. 2.

Which method is used to inject drugs without a needle by projecting a high-velocity jet? a) Pellet implantation b) Dermojet c) Sialistic implants d) Intramuscular Answer: Dermojet (“In this method needle is not used; a high velocity jet of drug solution is projected from a microfine orifice using a gun like implement.”) 9. What could be a reason to choose a transdermal therapeutic system over oral tablets? a) Lower cost b) Non-invasive administration c) Slow and unpredictable drug release d) Causes more side effects Answer: Non-invasive administration (“Though more expensive, they provide smooth plasma concentrations of the drug without fluctuations; minimize interindividual variations (drug is subjected to little first pass metabolism) and side effects.”) 1. 2.

Why is the intravenous route considered the most risky? a) It causes local irritation b) The drug is absorbed slowly c) Vital organs are exposed to high drug concentrations d) It requires special preparation Answer: Vital organs are exposed to high drug concentrations (“However, this is the most risky route —vital organs like heart, brain, etc. get exposed to high concentrations of the drug.”) 11. Which route would you recommend for administering a highly irritant drug? a) Subcutaneous b) Intramuscular c) Oral d) Intravenous Answer: Intravenous ( “The intima of veins is insensitive and drug gets diluted with blood, therefore, even highly irritant drugs can be injected i.v.”) 12. What is an advantage of the parenteral route over the oral route? a) Non-invasive and painless b) Self-administration is easy c) No need for sterility d) Bypasses digestive juices and liver Answer: Bypasses digestive juices and liver (“The limitations of oral administration are circumvented. Drug action is faster and surer (valuable in emergencies). Gastric irritation and vomiting are not provoked. Parenteral routes can be employed even in unconscious,
