💉 IM vs SQ — what’s the difference? 🤔
I get this question ALL the time, so let’s keep it simple.
✨ IM (intramuscular)
• Absorbs faster
• Higher peak levels
• More vascular
• Smoother + more comfortable injection experience (my personal favorite 🙋♀️)
✨ SQ (subcutaneous)
• Slower, steadier absorption
• Gentle, sustained release
• Great for maintenance or frequent dosing
👉 Both work beautifully.
The difference isn’t about what works better—it’s about how fast it absorbs and what your goal is.
