Intramuscular route The rate of resorption is fast and it is possible to inject aqueous or oily solutions. There are delayed preparations gradually releasing over one or many weeks the active product from the anatomic site of injection into the circulation‚ sexual hormones or neuroleptic agents for example. The intramuscular injection should not be made in a vessel‚ nor in contact with a nerve. It is contra-indicated if the patient is undergoing anticoagulant therapy. Intravenous route There are
