Buccal

A route of administration for a drug, examples, Actiq (fentanyl transmucosal system) and Saphris (asenapine sublingual tablets)

Buccal administration works as follows:
1) substance is introduced to the cheek/gum region
2) the substance is absorbed by the membranes
3) the substance goes into the bloodstream
Actiq, by the way, is a lollipop looking thing that delivers fentanyl to your cheek and gum membranes slowly.
Also, they taste good (about 2 grams of sugar plus flavorings per pop)

Fentanyl is an opioid and asenapine is an atypical antipsychotic.

"Buccal administration works very good for medications that asborb poorly when swallowed or ones that cause discomfort, such as melatonin."
