A route of administration is the pathway by which a drug, fluid, poison, or other substance is introduced into the body, a foundational concept in pharmacology and toxicology. The route chosen shapes how a substance is absorbed and how quickly it takes effect, so it is a basic decision in how any treatment is actually delivered to a patient.
