  • Subcutaneous
  • not irritating to tissue
  • Moreover, altering the period over which a drug is absorbed may be varied intentionally, as is accomplished with insulin for injection using particle size, protein complexation, and pH to provide short- (3 to 6 hours), intermediate- (10 to 18 hours), and long-acting (18 to 24 hours) preparations.

  • Intramuscular
  • Drugs in aqueous solution are absorbed quite rapidly after intramuscular injection depending on the rate of blood flow to the injection site.
  • may be modulated to some extent by local heating, massage, or exercise.
  • while absorption of insulin generally is more rapid from injection in the arm and abdominal wall than the thigh, jogging may cause a precipitous drop in blood sugar when insulin is injected into the thigh rather than into the arm or abdominal wall because running markedly increases blood flow to the leg.
  • A hot bath accelerates absorption from all these sites owing to vasodilation.
  • fat is relatively poorly perfused.
  • Slow, constant absorption from the intramuscular site results if the drug is injected in solution in oil or suspended in various other repository (depot) vehicles.

Three alternative policy options are identified to manage this risk and improve efficiency in Web 2.0's use.
