What is one of the advantages of tablet medication?

One of the advantages of tablet medication is that they can be pumped out of the stomach if an overdose occurs. This is particularly important in cases where a patient may have ingested an excessive amount of medication. Tablets can be removed through gastric lavage, a procedure that involves cleaning out the stomach, which can help mitigate the effects of an overdose. This advantage is beneficial compared to other forms of medication, as some methods like injections do not allow for such quick intervention.

The other options present advantages or characteristics of medications that may not be as applicable to tablets. While some medications may be more effective, effectiveness is not exclusively tied to the form of the medication (tablets versus injections). Additionally, tablets do not generally work faster than liquid medications, as the latter often absorb into the bloodstream more quickly. Lastly, while it is true that tablets might not require the same administration effort as injectable medications, the statement implies a lack of any administration, which is misleading as they still require ingestion by the patient.
