ATI Custom Pharmacology Exam 2 Questions

Extract:


Question 1 of 5

Why are sublingual and buccal medications rapidly absorbed?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C because sublingual and buccal medications are absorbed directly into the systemic circulation through the highly vascularized tissues under the tongue and inside the cheek. This bypasses the first-pass metabolism in the liver, allowing for rapid absorption and onset of action.

Choices A, B, and D are incorrect because sublingual and buccal medications are not metabolized in the liver, their action is not solely located in the mouth, and blood flow is actually increased in these sites, enhancing absorption.
