Verified step by step guidance1
Understand the term 'parenteral': Parenteral administration refers to delivering substances directly into the body, bypassing the digestive system. This is typically done through injections.
Identify the common parenteral routes: The most common parenteral routes include intravenous (IV), intramuscular (IM), and subcutaneous (SC) injections.
Differentiate between parenteral and non-parenteral routes: Oral and sublingual routes involve the digestive system or mucous membranes, while transdermal involves absorption through the skin, none of which are parenteral.
Recognize intravenous as a parenteral route: Intravenous administration involves delivering medication directly into the bloodstream, making it a parenteral route.
Conclude that intravenous is the correct parenteral route from the given options, as it bypasses the digestive system and involves direct entry into the bloodstream.
