&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;QUESTIONS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol class="wikiextraspace"&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Define local administration. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;By what name are locally administered drugs commonly known? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;List 8 types of topical preparation. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Define systemic administration. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What medical condition would contra-indicate the oral administration of a drug and why? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;In addition to vomiting, list 3 other reasons why oral administration of a drug may not be a suitable route (clue - these are associated with the drug rather than the patient). &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;These abbreviations are commonly used in practice: I/V, I/M, S/Q (or S/C), I/P &amp;amp; P/O. What do they stand for? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Of the routes of drug administration listed in Q6, which is the fastest acting and why? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What is the difference between a solution and a suspension? Explain why suspensions should never be injected. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Although the fastest route of action is often desirable, certain drugs may benefit from slower absorption. Explain why. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What is a depot preparation? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What is nebulisation? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
