Answer:

b. ingestion.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to take into account some guidelines when taking a medication. You cannot abuse the doses. Some drugs must be taken before, others during and others after meals.

The administration of a drug can be done in several ways. In the case of home care, the oral route is usually used. The characteristic of the oral route is that the active substance of the drug is administered by mouth, absorbed in the stomach or intestine and from there it passes into the general circulation.

Different preparations are used to administer drugs orally. It is important when administering any of these preparations that you read the medicine leaflet well and if in doubt ask your doctor or pharmacist.
