looking at that drug chart, I bet IM stands for intravenous method (giving into the bloodstream) the PO bid (twice a day) and tid (3 times a day) means by mouth, SC would probably be injection subscutaneously (under the skin) and IV would mean through an IV. So if you just look at the ones able to be given by IM that narrows down the drugs that were probably used. The first one could also be given SC or IM since all you know is it was an injection.
