Administration
Administration is the delivery of a pharmaceutical drug to a patient.
It can be performed in various dosage forms such as pills, tablets, or capsules.
There are also many variations in the routes of administration, including intravenous (into the blood through a vein) and oral administration (through the mouth).
They can be administered all at once as a bolus, at frequent intervals or continuously. Frequencies are often abbreviated from Latin, such as every 8 hours reading Q8H from Quaque VIII Hora.
