    administration of medication through the mouth for systemic effect

    Oral Treatment, also known as Oral Medication or Oral Therapy, refers to the administration of drugs or therapeutic agents through the mouth. This method allows the medication to be absorbed through the digestive system and into the bloodstream, making it a convenient and non-invasive way to treat various conditions, including those related to hair loss and alopecia.
