Greetings to everyone! My name is Oluwatimileyin. I’m glad to be here, and I hope you’re doing great. I’m glad to partake in this engagement challenge “ SEC-S16 / W2 | How do you like it better? injected Or orally?💉💊”
In the health care service, the route in which medical administrations is given plays a role in determining the speed and effectiveness of the dose. Among these three route which are the intramuscular, intravenous and oral medications depends on the medications given as some contradict the other and also each has its advantages and considerations.
Let’s now delve into the contest for the week.
Which of these three routes of medication administration do you consider the fastest and most effective to relieve pain, why?
When it comes to immediate relief, intravenous administration is the fastest. Administration through IV goes straight to the veins, then into the bloodstream which will pass the body system which will ensure a rapid action of the medications. Also In the case of emergency, IV delivers swiftly, giving the patient a quick relief.
There are two ways to administer injected treatment, intravenous and intramuscular. Which of them do you prefer in case you need quick relief or discomfort?
In the case of intravenous and intramuscular, nature of medication plays a major role. Actually, both can serves a rapid relief but depends on the medication to be administered as some medications contradict the other. There are medications specifically made for intravenous (IV) while some are made specifically for intramuscular (IM), also some medications are made using the both( intravenous or intramuscular).

Therefore before administering medication to patients, certain conditions should be met such as the medication to be used, patient’s condition and the most appropriate route of medication to be administered.
💉There is a very good medicine for our body vitamin B12, why do you think they indicate it more in injection and not in pills? Do you think they do not have the same components or the same effect?
vitamin B12 has a vital nutrient our body need in functioning well. It’s a supplements available in both injection and oral forms. Injections are mostly preferrable because it helps in direct absorption into the bloodstream which helps in the formation of the red blood cells and in the prevention of anaemia and also cell metabolism
Vitamin B12 injection offer a quick and potent effect than oral In supplements. Oral supplements can be effective for maintenance therapy, injections are often favored for initial correction of deficiency or in cases where oral absorption is compromised.
💊If you are one of those who do not take pills and you do not like injections, what other method are you looking for to relieve pain or discomfort!?
Although I take pills and injections but to maintain and have a good health I do more of taking fruits, drinking enough water to stay hydrated always, eating vegetables and exercising.
Most of the exercise I do regularly in the morning is stretching and this has helped in relieving pains in my body

I totally get that. Injecting stuff straight into your veins sounds like it would work super quick, especially when you need fast help, like in emergencies.
Makes sense. Different meds need different ways to get into your body fast. Knowing which method suits the medication helps us make smarter choices for our health.
I've read about this! Vitamin B12 injections seem to hit faster than pills because they go right into your bloodstream. It's like a quick boost for your body, especially when you need it the most.
More success to you .
