IM means Intramuscular route of drug administration, while IV means Intraveinal route of drug administration.
IV route, takes the drug directly into the bloodstream resulting in 100% bioavailability instantly.
Where as in IM route, drug is injected into muscle tissues, which holds the drug for a while and gradually releases into the bloodstream through the network bed of capillaries running across or surrounding the muscle tissue. In IM, the bioavailability may be slightly less than 100% of drug due to diffusion from muscle through tissue fluid and into the blood.
Intramuscular (IM) injections are given into the muscle tissue, while intravenous (IV) injections are given directly into the vein. IM injections are typically absorbed more slowly than IV injections, which allow for a slower release of medication into the bloodstream. IV injections are usually faster acting and have a more immediate effect.

What is the difference between fission and fusion in nuclear bombardment reactions?
Fission is the splitting of a heavy nucleus into lighter nuclei, releasing energy and neutrons. Fusion is the merging of light nuclei to form a heavier nucleus, releasing energy. In fission, the atomic weight of the reactant nucleus is high, whereas in fusion, the atomic weight is low.
Is citric acid sodium hydrogen carbonate endothermic or exothermic reaction?
The reaction between citric acid and sodium hydrogen carbonate is an exothermic reaction because it releases heat energy. This reaction is commonly seen in effervescent tablets used to produce carbon dioxide gas.
What determines the range of spectral lines produced during electron transition?
The range of spectral lines produced during electron transition is determined by the energy difference between the initial and final electronic states. This energy difference corresponds to the photon energy of the emitted light, which dictates the wavelength or frequency of the spectral lines observed in the spectrum. Additionally, the atomic structure and electron configuration of the atom also play a role in determining the specific transitions and resulting spectral lines.
How many ml should be given to im injection?
3mls
What type of injection is given when a large amount of medication must be given into a muscle?
an injection into the muscle is called a Intramuscular injection or IM injection for short. These are the safest types of injections for people who are not certified to work with animals to give.
What is route of administration of swine flu vaccine?
If injected it is given in the muscle as an intramuscular injection. It can also be taken as a nasal mist that is sniffed.
Do you get scabs from Heroin injection?
On the injection site? Sorry im confused.
Can you massage an IM injection site after administration?
we do not massage site after IM injection because it may cause underlying tissue damage
What is the best way to treat your horse IV or MV?
The possible ways to inject a horse are IV (intravenous), IM (Intramuscular) and SQ (sub cutaneous) are often medication dependant. Most vaccines are designed to be given IM. Most tranquilizers and pain meds are given either IM or IV. Most antibiotics are given IM or SubQ...although certain types can be given IV. The instructions will indicate how any injection is to be given. Injections given improperly can result in injury or death

What is intramuscular chemotherapy?
Chemotherapy given by intramuscular injection is absorbed into the blood more slowly than IV chemotherapy. Because of this, the effects of IM chemotherapy may last longer than chemotherapy given intravenously.
