How are aminocaproic acid and tranexamic acid typically administered until bleeding is controlled?

  1. Orally

  2. Intramuscularly

  3. Intravenously

  4. Subcutaneously

The correct answer is: Intravenously

Aminocaproic acid and tranexamic acid are typically administered intravenously until bleeding is controlled because this route of administration allows for the medication to be delivered directly into the bloodstream for faster and more effective absorption. The other options, such as oral or intramuscular administration, may not be as effective or efficient in controlling bleeding. Subcutaneous administration may not be suitable for these medications as it is typically used for smaller doses with slower absorption rates.
