ABSTRACT:
Pharmaceutical dosage forms play a crucial role in delivering medications to patients effectively. Among these forms, tablets
and injections are two common methods. Tablets are solid forms of medication taken orally, easy to swallow, and convenient for
patients. They dissolve in the stomach, allowing the drug to enter the bloodstream gradually. However, some patients may have
difficulty swallowing tablets, or certain medications may not work well when taken by mouth. In such cases, injections
become important. Injections deliver medication directly into the bloodstream or body tissues, providing faster relief and better
absorption. This method is particularly useful for emergencies, certain chronic conditions, or when patients cannot take oral
medications.
