Answer:

The correct answer is 30 minutes on average

Explanation:

Taking medicine orally demands the substance to travel through the digestive system, being broken down in the stomach, and later on be absorbed by the blood in the intestines, all that before reaching the brain.

This is the slowest method to administer a dose, in the other hand the drug effect lasts longer, sense is evenly spread trough the body.
