> any selegiline that reaches the bloodstream is metabolized by the liver into methamphetamine. much more selegiline is ABSORBED into the bloodstream sublingually [under the tongue] than orally [in the stomach, small intestine]. the reason selegiline [any form] is more invigorating under the tongue, therefore, is that MORE of it is metabolized into methamphetamine, and more quickly.When nutrients are absorbed from the intesting, they go directly to the liver via the portal vein. This is 'first pass metabolism.' Drugs entering otherwise may circulate w/o reaching the liver for a period of time. This is why oral drugs are more extensively metabolised before reaching the brain than otherwise administered drugs.
