Answer:
The answer is "intranasal" absorption.
Explanation:
Medical drugs can be absorbed in the body through various means of administration <em>(orally, rectally, intradermally, intranasally, etc.).</em> Among the different kinds of administrations, it is the<u> intranasal (through the nose</u>) which causes the highest risk of overdose due to increased potency.
The intranasal administration of drugs provides a fast effect compared to those drugs administered orally, rectally or intradermally. This is the reason why the drugs being administered are potent. <em>This means that even at low concentrations, the drug immediately works through intranasal absorption. </em>
Thus, it is very important in monitoring the dosage of the drugs when giving intranasally as it can result to drug overdose.
