What is "sublingual administration"?
Sublingual administration is a method of giving or taking medication by placing it under the tongue, where it dissolves and is absorbed directly into the bloodstream through the tissues. This method allows for quick absorption and quick start of the medication's effects, avoiding the digestive system. Sublingual administration is commonly used for medications like certain pain relievers, anti-nausea drugs, and some vitamins.
