Peculiar Medication in newborns Drug absorption in newborns is affected by administration route Intravenous administration(frequently used ) stable absorption,at slow speed. Local drug administration fast absorption,skin,mouth,rectal,avoid toxicity on broken and inflammatory skin. Intramusclar administration irregular absorption (less muscle and poor circulation)
