    Sublingual tablets are placed under the tongue and absorbed through the mucous membranes of the mouth. Buccal tablets are placed between the cheek and gum and are also absorbed through the mucous membranes of the mouth. Blood vessels are located close to the surface in mucous membranes, so sublingual and buccal administration routes allow for rapid absorption into the blood stream (Hua, 2019).
