A
If a drug has several therapeutic uses, it is classified according to its most common usage. Some drugs are available in more than one form (e.g., tablets or suppositories) but are prescribed for administration by a specific route: oral (by mouth), buccal (between cheek and gum), sublingual (under the tongue), rectal (into the rectum), parenteral (not oral-gastrointestinal), topical (applied to a defined local area), or respiratory (by inhalation).
