Why are some medications pills and some injection? How do the researchers determine which is best?

631 views

For example I take three different types of medication for migraines. One is a monthly injection, one is a dissolvable pill and another is just a regular pill I take. How do the researchers decide the best way for patients to take the pills?

Also I am terrible at chemistry so if anyone’s explanation includes that, please dumb it down as best as you can.

My migraine neurologist only gives me injection and dissolvable meds because my stomach is so sensitive I always end up vomiting regular pills up. So how the patient tolerates the meds is a factor.
