Preparation & administration
Subcutaneous
Also known as: subq · sub-q · sc · subcut
Injection into the fatty layer beneath the skin — the standard route for most peptide administration.
In plain terms
Absorption from subcutaneous tissue is slower and steadier than from muscle, which suits peptides intended to act over hours or days. Common sites are the abdomen, outer thigh, and the back of the upper arm.
