Maxiotic belongs to which category?

• A. Ophthalmic Preparation (eye medication)
• B. Otic Preparations (ear medications)
• C. Oral Medications
• D. Injectable Medications

Answer: (C)

The main idea here is how a drug is given to the animal—the route of administration. Maxiotic is prepared to be given by mouth, in tablet or liquid form, so it’s categorized as an oral medication. Eye treatments are formulated as eye drops or ointments for direct application to the eye (ophthalmic), and ear treatments are eye drops or ointments for the ear (otic). Injectable medications are given by needle, whether into muscle, vein, or under the skin. Since Maxiotic is taken orally and absorbed systemically rather than applied to the eye/ear or given by injection, the oral medications category is the correct fit.
