Injection Medications

Injection medications are medications that are administered through a needle or syringe directly into the body, either into a muscle, vein, or under the skin. This method of delivery allows the medication to quickly enter the bloodstream and have a more rapid effect compared to oral medications. Injection medications are often used for more serious or urgent medical conditions, as well as for certain vaccines and allergy treatments. These medications can be administered at home by patients themselves or by healthcare professionals in a medical setting. Some common types of injection medications include insulin for diabetes, vaccines for infectious diseases, and corticosteroids for inflammation.
