What method of administration is used for atropine sulfate in emergencies?

Orally
Intravenously
Inhalation
Transdermal Patch

The correct answer is: Intravenously

Atropine sulfate is typically administered intravenously in emergencies because it allows for a more rapid absorption into the bloodstream. Administering it orally or through inhalation would take longer for the medication to take effect and may not be as effective in an emergency situation. Using a transdermal patch would also be too slow and may not provide immediate relief. Intravenous administration is the most common and recommended method for emergency use of atropine sulfate.
