How do you decide the best method of administration?
The choice of administration method depends on several factors:
Age of the child: Younger children may not be able to swallow pills and may require liquid forms or other methods. Type of medication: Some medications are only effective or are best absorbed when administered through specific routes. Severity of the condition: Acute conditions might require faster-acting methods like IV or IM. Childâs health status: Some methods might not be suitable for children with certain health conditions.
