1st past metabolism effect can be observed with which route______________?

Correct answer: A. Oral

  • A. Oral
  • B. Inhalation
  • C. Rectal
  • D. Parental

Explanation

Orally administered drugs pass from the gut through the portal circulation to the liver before reaching systemic circulation, producing a first-pass effect. Rectal administration partly avoids this effect, while inhaled and parenteral routes generally bypass it.
