Under tongue: Usually it is placed under the tongue and allowed to dissolve. It can be given intravenously or by a patch placed on the skin.

Under the tongue: It depends on the formulation: it can be a pill that you place under the tongue and wait to dissolve, or a spray that you use under the tongue. The effect should be within 2-3 minutes.
