How is the MMR vaccine administered?

  1. IV

  2. IM

  3. SQ

  4. Orally

The correct answer is: SQ

The MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella) vaccine is typically administered subcutaneously (SQ), meaning it is injected into the fatty tissue layer just beneath the skin. This route of administration allows for a slower absorption of the vaccine compared to intravenous (IV) administration, ensuring a controlled release of the vaccine components into the body. Administering the MMR vaccine intramuscularly (IM) or orally is not the preferred route for this specific vaccine.
