A route of administration for a drug, examples, Actiq (fentanyl transmucosal system) and Saphris (asenapine sublingual tablets) Buccal administration works as follows: 1) substance is introduced to the cheek/gum region 2) the substance is absorbed by the membranes 3) the substance goes into the bloodstream Actiq, by the way, is a lollipop looking thing that delivers fentanyl to your cheek and gum membranes slowly. Also, they taste good (about 2 grams of sugar plus flavorings per pop) Fentanyl is an opioid and asenapine is an atypical antipsychotic.
