Lorazepam can be administered by which of the following routes?
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: B. Oral, intramuscular, intravenous, and sublingual routes are all used clinically
Lorazepam is versatile — it's commonly given orally for anxiolysis/premedication, IV for procedural sedation or status epilepticus, IM when IV access isn't available, and sublingually in some settings. The 'best' route depends on the clinical context (e.g., IV is typical for in-office sedation; oral is typical for pre-op anxiolysis the night before).
