Administration of drugs |

Main article: Route of administration |
|
|
All drugs, can be administered via a number of routes, and many can be administered by more than one. |
|
|
Bolus is the administration of a medication, drug or other compound that is given to raise its concentration in blood to an effective level. The administration can be given intravenously, by parenteral,by indovenous, by intramuscular, intrathecal or subcutaneous injection. ] (]) 03:41, 16 January 2024 (UTC) |

:Agree; removed and took 'bolus' out of that list, as its not a route of administration. ] (]) 16:58, 12 July 2024 (UTC) |

|
|

The term "drug" has become a ]; ] can have a negative connotation, often associated with illegal substances like cocaine or heroin. This is despite the fact that the terms "drug" and "medicine" are sometimes used interchangeably.<ref>{{cite journal |pmc=7120710 |date=2011 |title=Introduction to Drugs and Drug Targets |journal=The Science and Business of Drug Discovery |pages=11–27 |doi=10.1007/978-1-4419-9902-3_2 | vauthors = Zanders ED |isbn=978-1-4419-9901-6 }}</ref> |

== Classification vs Medication content == |
|
|
|
|
|
The first half of the classification section is the exact same as the last paragraph of the medication section. I wonder if there is a way these sections could be combined, or be better distinguished from each other? ] (]) 06:49, 16 December 2024 (UTC) |
