involve injecting medication into the fat layer under skin

Subcutaneous injections, often abbreviated as Sub-Q injections, involve administering medication into the layer of fat and tissue just beneath the skin. This method is commonly used for drugs that need to be absorbed slowly, such as insulin or certain vaccines, and is typically performed using a small needle to minimize discomfort.
