SEC-S16 / W2 | How do you like it better? injected Or orally?💉💊"

The idea of taking and administering drug is something that I don't really like, but it is a must to everyone both as a parent and as an individual. Drug administration can take various forms depending on the type of drug.

It could be taken or assimilated orally, it could be by intravenous or by intramuscular means, which involves needles and syringes.

Well we are going to examine from my standpoint, which one I deem better. The topic for the engagement is How do you like it better? injected Or orally?.

The contest tips will serve as a guide in delving more into this topic.

Which of these three routes of medication administration do you consider the fastest and most effective to relieve pain, why?

Generally taking drugs is not pleasurable at all. Just the sight and smell of the drug sends jitters down my spine.

However, there is nothing I can do about it, since it is part of life. Once in a while, we fall sick and we have to take drugs to get.

Regarding which means of taking drugs that I like best and is fastest in relieving pains, I would say that intravenous means is faster and more efficient In relieving pains.

This is because, it is injected straight in to the blood stream through the veins, which makes it easier to attacked the problem as quickly as possible. When you take the drugs orally, it would require time for the drugs to dissolve and then be absorbed into the blood stream before it starts its work. So it takes longer time to work.

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?

Like I mentioned at the onset, intravenous is always faster when it comes to relieving pains and discomfort. It does not require any further process of abortion into the blood stream once administered.

It is also good to note that there are some drugs that have a specific way of administering them.

For example, there are some that must be taken via intramuscular means. So for such one, the individual does not have an option.

So intramuscular method is unique in its own way since it will not be given as an intravenous treatment. The other form such treatment can be administered is through oral means which take longer time.

I personally prefer intravenous to intramuscular but if a specific treatment is prescribed to be taken intramuscular, I will have to endure the pain. I wish there could be a way out.

💉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 B-12 is an essential vitamin needed by the body to perform so many functions. It helps so much in the body with red blood cell formation, metabolism of cells, the body's nerve functions and DNA production inside our cells.

So from the above, we can deduce it's importance to the human body thus, what determines method of administration is how important and how fast the patient needs it.

If the patients lacks res blood cells and needs a drug to stimulate faster, the injection method will be prescribed, since that goes straight to the blood veins and triggers red cell production immediately.

Both the pills and the injection have the same component, the difference is just how fast each method will act in causing the desired result and how quick the patient needs the result.

💊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!?

Hahaha, this sounds funny. Some will tell you that their prayer will cure. Well while not underestimating the power of prayer, it is said, faith without works is dead, such prayer and faith would be backed by actions. So in this case the action would mean taking drugs whether orally, intravenously or even intramuscularly.

Exercise can also help in relieving pain and discomfort, but not all the times since the cause of the pain determines how it should be treated.

As for me, I prefer oral means of administration, and then, intravenous before intramuscular. Exercise so helps me to relieve my pains or to heal faster. Hence, whenever I am sick, I usually go out to exercise my body to burn fats and this get well easily.

Conclusion

Every human looks for a life without pains, discomfort or anything that would lead to taking of drugs. Whichever way the drug is to be administered, my major concern is to be relieved of the pains and discomfort.

I will like @tenguhatanga @okere-blessing @moyeon @mesola and @drhira to take part. here
