• Gas inhalation- In this process drug is administered directly in the gaseous form. It should not be used in anesthetic patient.
• Nebulization- The fine spray of drugs is to be administered by the formation of compressed gas.  

     In such route the drugs are to be taken through a variety of dosage forms consisting the simple inhalations in case of volatile ingredients such as menthol, the sophisticated inhaler or aerosol devices. 
    The major advantage of the inhaled route of drug administration is that the dose of the drug requirement to provide the desired effect is relatively smaller which is not resembling to the oral route of drug absorption. The onset of action is very fast. Because the blood flows directly to the lungs and their large surface area. It is also used to provide the systemic action.

THE PARENTERAL ROUTE OF DRUG ADMINISTRATION

    It is the most effective route of drug administration. Because the drug is direct inject into the blood circulation and also because of its quick onset of action. This is the term used when drug is administered by injection.

Various parenteral route

    There are several type of parenteral route by which drug is to be administered i.e.

• Intravenous route- The drug is directly injected into the systemic blood circulation. This produces very quick onset of action. After intravenous administration of drugs they reaches at the site of action within a few seconds.
• Subcutaneous route- The route is where the drugs are to be injected into the subcutaneous layer of the skin. This is the easiest and least painful type of injection to be administered.
• Intramuscular route- The drugs are injected into muscle layers. This method can be used to produce very fast onset of action when the aqueous drug solution are given. But the drug formulated in suspension or in oily vehicle is administered, the duration of action is very long. By the administration in this form the drug activities is relatively slow.
