GlossaryIntramuscular Injections

method of delivering medication directly into muscle tissue

Intramuscular injections (IM injections) are a method of delivering medication deep into the muscles, allowing the drug to be absorbed into the bloodstream quickly. This technique is commonly used for vaccines, hormone treatments, and certain medications that need to be administered quickly or in larger volumes than subcutaneous injections can handle.
