- Primary Target
- Localized (Stomach & Intestines)
- Systemic (Whole Body)
- Bioavailability
- Lower systemic, high local concentration
- Very high systemic bioavailability
- Convenience
- High (simple, non-invasive)
- Lower (requires preparation)
- Preparation
- Minimal (capsules or simple mixing)
- Requires sterile reconstitution
- Best For
- Gut-exclusive research (IBD, gastritis)
- Combined gut & systemic issues (joints, muscle)
