Patch, Gum, Lozenge, Inhaler
A patch is a small adhesive covering applied to the skin to deliver medication gradually over time. Gum is a chewable form of medicine that releases active ingredients as you chew, often used for quitting smoking or delivering certain drugs. Lozenges are small, flavored tablets meant to be dissolved slowly in the mouth, providing localized or systemic relief, such as sore throat relief. An inhaler is a device that delivers medicine directly into the lungs by inhalation, often used for respiratory conditions like asthma or COPD. Each method offers targeted delivery suited to different medical needs and preferences.
