Which of the following routes of drug administration has the fastest onset of action?
Oral administration has a slower onset of action because drugs must first pass through the gastrointestinal tract and be absorbed into the bloodstream.
Intravenous administration has the fastest onset of action because drugs are injected directly into the bloodstream, allowing for immediate distribution throughout the body.
Sublingual administration has a faster onset of action than oral administration, but slower than intravenous administration because drugs are absorbed through the mucous membranes under the tongue and must then enter the bloodstream.
Topical administration has a slower onset of action because drugs must first pass through the skin or mucous membranes before entering the bloodstream.
